2. Is learning at a distance for me?
While e-learning can offer access and convenience to enrich learning opportunities, you must be prepared to take advantage of that access and convenience. There are some key questions you should ask yourself. These questions address your motivation, your time management skills, your use of technology, and your general study skills.
Distance learning is not the best method of learning for everyone. If you need help, we have Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about distance learning as well as for higher education. You can access these by clicking on the question mark FAQs icon located on the left hand menu. You can also send an e-mail inquiry to an OLN representative for assistance from this location
To help you make this decision, try our free E 4 ME orientation course to distance learning. E 4 ME is a fun and informative online experience designed to introduce you to e-learning. It is intended for someone who is new to e-learning or who hasn't been in a formal learning environment like a classroom, college, university or workshop for quite some time.
