How to Take Online Classes - Study Tips - Distance Learning

Are you taking classes online? Do you need help figuring out Distance Learning? Socratica Friends, we’re here to help. You don’t have to be in a classroom to be a Great Student. But there are some important differences about the best ways to study for Online Courses.
One big difference is that you are on your own to manage your time. Don’t try to cram all your online courses in one day! We’ll give you some practical advice about how to break up your study time. The best method we know for this is the Pomodoro Technique. We made a video all about it. Try it!! bit.ly/PomodoroSocratica
Another difference in online learning is how you will be participating. Discussion forums are the most common way you will be required to participate for your online classes, but some instructors arrange for meetings with Google Hangouts, Skype, or Zoom. Be prepared if this is the case with a webcam. You can use your phone camera in a pinch.
Find a quiet place in your house to claim as your special study spot. This will help you take your online classes seriously. Every time you sit down in your study spot, you’ll be ready to work. We have a video to help you get your desk organized: bit.ly/Organize_Desk

[@terryterryd]

All of this is so true. I did a one year Post Grad Certificate, a first year of a MSc and the time commitment was huge : after a long day at work a busy evening to follow. I would start a week on a Thursday, have to have a forum post done by the Sunday (well written etc) and I had to log in each day after and put a retort or response to a fellow student (3 to 5 high quality responses to enhance and further the discussion). On top of that was individual assignments. On top of that was group work with people all around the world - so time differences had to be considered too. My social life was severely affected and I had to work on holidays (including no breaks at Christmas). Hope this helps.

[@Socratica]

It can get really intense! So important to know how much work you're really signing up for. Thanks so much for sharing your story. 💜🦉

[@terryterryd]

@@Socratica Also(!) The lecturers can really vary in their behaviour. Some were super hard, setting quite stressful requirements (cover 8 topics in 500 words - then told "not enough detail); others could be too easy, awarding straight As, only to have my work re-graded by the board at a later date 🤷‍♂️😒

[@pritalbamnodkar2620]

What I did is I made a Spreadsheet of all MOOCs I'm going to take in next two years approx. Then rearranged them according to their prerequisites and divided them into modules. Also I divided into 4 paths like Computer Science, Maths, Miscellaneous, etc and started devoting about 30 - 60 minutes a day to each. There's also a 5th path for foreign languages which takes about 15 minutes a day and can be squeezed at any time slot.

Amazing! We are inspired by you! 💜🦉
