How do you feel that you have benefited from the online community in this course?
I have benefited in several ways from taking this online class. First this course helped ensure I have the appropriate computer system and knowledge to be successful online. Next, I learned through activities, link and information what the expectations are for online students. The different assessment tests helped me understand my readiness for online courses, my study habits, procrastination level, and other important aspects of online learning. I discovered online learning can be just as effective as learning on-the-ground. I gained knowledge of my learning style and how this knowledge can help me be successful in all learning situations. I gained experience with Canvas, which is our new platform. But much of this would be impossible without the benefit of having "conversations" with each other in this course. Reading about everyone else's experience, and sharing information is one of best ways I learn. The interaction with each other as we collectively navigated this course made this a unique experience. I appreciated everyone's honest thoughts and opinions about our discussion board questions. I think we learn individually and as a group more when there are frequent opportunities to share among each other. I was thankful to have someone to "ask" when I had a question and the quick response from our instructor. I appreciated the feedback from both and will be leaving the class feeling capable of handling other online courses successfully as a result.
