in my univ, the ones i've taken have been a waste of time... i'd go for fully online if it's an option.
i feel that 95% of the class ends up being online (tests/quizzes/assignments) and we just show up in class every other week to just review the stuff we were to have read at home. |

My current The Biology of Being Human class is about 70/30 (although the 30% can also be found online in the form of previously recorded videos of the lectures).
I attend all my lectures (I'm only taking chem & bio courses) after reading the suggested readings. Helps me with concepts I didn't get during the read-through while solidifying the info that I did understand.
Plus, sometimes 's discussed that's not in the book that ends up on the midterms & final. |

if you don't have the discipline to do stuff on your own, don't get into online/hybrid courses yet. are your tests online or in class? if they're online it's obviously way easier to cheat. |

well its freshman composition. he has us do a lot of critical thinking on our own and within groups. this is to stimulate other views and what not for our writing.
but yeah thats why i contemplated dropping it. so that i can get into the swing of things before i actually do an online course. |

You know,
I feel like taking an on-line philosophy course, just for the sake of it. I study a lot by myself anyway, but I wonder whether it's really worth is, as the university offering this course has no presite prestige whatsoever :p
edit: Damn, I need to get some sleep :D |
