I currently am attended the Axia College of University of Phoenix on-line and it's been ...well, different. I've attended a physical college before and there certainly is a lot of anxiety attached to this type of forum. At first, the feeling was just that you aren't in a classroom, just an email waiting to be read. However, the more you reach out and try to make it a REAL environment, it becomes that. Be careful though, distance learning can be overwhelming! It can consume your thoughts 24 hours a day. A schedule is imperative to success through distance learning. Really think things through before you do it. Also what has been a problem for me, because my computer is in a central location in my home, it's not very conducive to learning, when you have drones of reading to do and your kids are running around and television is a distraction. The most important thing is honesty. If you plan to cheat, think again. No one is going to keep you motivated but you! Life is gonna keep happening and you'll have to make school a priority for yourself. Good luck!
