Voted Best Online Psychology Course in Ohio---2007
Internet
instruction is a dynamic opportunity to learn from afar, without the
restrictions imposed by land-based classes. Internet courses take advantage of
the technologies, mixed with life style differences to make for an optimized
learning experience. Specifically, my Internet courses occur entirely on-line.
By that I mean all communications, submissions, tests, etceteras take
place on the Internet---no visit to the College is required. The courses are
time-framed for 8-weeks and are semi-asynchronous. Asynchronous means that the
tests and paper submissions are not concurrent in time, the dates are flexible
to fit your time. For example, the on-line tests may be taken within a 4-day
window, whenever the time is good for you.
However,
I should point out, having offered a dozen or so courses on the Web that two personality
traits stand out as requisites for success. They are: Self-motivation and
Self-discipline. A high degree of each is required, as the reinforcers provided
in land-based classes are absent. Think about it.
One
more thing: It is my experientially based observation that an additional reason
students do poorly is because they do not read/comprehend the info in this
Syllabus. If you have read this entire paragraph, follow these directions expressly:
Send a course e-mail to psyc151@lorainccc.edu
(not Angel e-mail) by 8:00 AM of the first Thursday of the start of the course
AND RECEIVE 2 POINTS--it could make a difference! In your e-mail just
type TWO POINTS AND YOUR NAME---nothing else is required. Be sure
to send to: psyc151@lorainccc.edu
Again, welcome to the idea of "Distance Learning".
