I love continuing my education, right in the comfort of my own home. Can you
imagine this - having the flexibility and freedom to attend classes according
to my own schedule, choosing the course I want, and having easy access to all
the materials for classes for the next lesson?
If you too, are an online student, you could probably relate with me. However,
if you are considering an online education, there are 7 important tips to know
about continuing your education online, and how to be a successful online
student:
1) You must be able to communicate through writing.
As you are attending a virtual classroom, nearly all communication is written,
and in order to fully participate in classes, it is critical that you are able
to express yourself effectively through writing.
2) Motivation and self-discipline.
When you attend a conventional school, you have your friends and teachers to
motivate you and even 'punish' you if you do not complete your assignments. Not
in the world of online education. You must therefore be highly motivated and
disciplined, and take responsibility for your own education.
3) Learn to 'speak up'
In the traditional world of education, if the teacher sees that the students
look confused or unsure of what has been taught, he/she will repeat it until
the students are clear. However in the online world, the instructors are unable
to know if the students are able to keep up to speed with the lessons, unless
the students 'speak up'.
4) Have a different attitude towards online education
Most students nowadays think that online education is the easy way to get an
education. That is far from the truth. In fact, continuing your education
online may be harder than a normal education, due to the strict quality control
most online schools enforce. Therefore, view it as a convenient way to get an
education, and not an easy way.
5) Practise critical thinking and decision making
The online learning process requires the student to be decisive in making
decisions based on information provided, along with experience. And making the
right decision requires critical thoughts.
6) Participate
One of the most important tips is to participate actively in a virtual
classroom. You can learn a lot from your peers as well, and this makes
continuing your education online a much more fun process.
7) Be polite and respectful
Although you are anonymous, be wary *[geo

of your language. You are after all dealing with real teachers and students,
and it is crucial to have a productive and supportive online environment. In
such positive environments, you will feel more valued, and your own work will
have higher value naturally.
Online education is starting to take the world by storm, and more and more
students are turning to virtual schools to get their accredited online degrees.
If this sounds good, you can always request for your free online education
match, and decide for yourself if continuing your education online is suitable
for you.
