Getting a Sense for What
to Expect
One of the websites that covers online learning in
detail is
WorldWideLearn.com, a
website that offers ways to get an education online, and
has many different options for the level of learning
that you desire. Of course, you can also get your
education online from Universities, many of which offer
courses online.
When you get down to looking at specific universities,
look at their websites carefully. They often
provide testimonials and other descriptions from current
or past students that can help to give you a flavor for
online learning from the student's view at that institution.
The Sloan Consortium has on a section of their website
survey reports about online learning, and extensive
details on the subject. If you are seriously
considering online learning as an option for you, it is
important that you consider
checking it out.
