What Makes Online Classes A Unique Adventure?

By Dr. Ellen Weber

Have you ever wondered why Online grew so fast recently for so many students?

I've found that from the hundreds of adults I've taught Online … the more successful learners tend to reboot their brains for the unique Ecourses. It's true that only about 60% of those who begin a program finish it, but those who do graduate, use more brain friendly strategies. For instance, they …

1). Avoid panic and tend to ease their way into new landscapes in smaller steps.

2). Engage alternative ideas … and learn from others who share opposite viewpoints, especially on controversial topics.

3). Practice good tone regardless of others who may post disagreeable messages, or push personal opinions on an issue.

4). Draw from their multiple intelligences to help themselves overcome Online challenges.

5). Organize time so that they build new neuron pathways for their brains to work ahead of the pack on most Online tasks.

6). Laugh at the little things, and laugh often at themselves.

Have you considered Online as a way to jumpstart old skills and add a few options, while you hold down a job and support a family?
