Question : About online classes, Are they gonna know where and who answers the home works and assignments?

We Answered:

Well, it all depends on how sopisticated their system is and/or if they even care whether students cheat on their homework or quizzez. After all, the only one a student cheats in the end is themselves and eventually it will catch up with them. Probably sooner than some might think, because if you are taking the online course through a local college they more than likely require that students come in to take the major exams, and if the students didn't study and cheated they will fail the test and ultimately the course, because the major exams usually carry a lot of weight; especially the final exam.

How much are online classes per year about?

We Answered:

It depends the last time checked they range from 65k to 85k depending on the school and degree you are pursuing. They range from 120 credits to 150 credits that needs to be completed to graduate. My range is based as a whole and not per year. Online classes can be difficult if you can't manage your time efficiently and it can be time consuming as that of a regular campus without the commute of course. I take design classes on line. While it's very convenient to get online classes you can go work as well. Usually like on my college we are allowed 3 subjects two of which are 3 credits each and one is 7 credits which is a core class related to your degree. 1 term is 3 months on mine. So if I needed 130 credits to graduate and considering you take full credits of 7-3-3= 13 credits per term. Save a lot of money and pay the principal cost not the interest. Same as buying a house you pay for the principal to lower payments more. Get a co-signer and check on stafford loans together with private loans. Stafford loans are federally insured loans and private added to the cost are those you would need as well cause there's a limit on the stafford loans so you might need both and are billed together by the school.Good luck.

How does online college classes work?

We Answered:

From my experiences there is no software or chatrooms.

In both of the online classes I took it was the exact same material that was taught in class but straight out of the book. You read the book and learn on your own. There is no discussion. All interaction (if any) is done with the teacher via e-mail. You'll probably get some sort of calendar with all the due dates on it.

For example, my geography class was an online quiz once a week which was basically 10 questions in 20 minutes.

Then every 3 weeks would be a 25 question test which we'd have an hour to do. The semester consisted of 5.

They were pretty easy since I had the book and the internet at my finger tips... ::cough:: yahoo answers ::cough::

There were also a few essays given as homework throughout the semester.

Your class may be different though. Who knows.

Question about online classes where you can earn accredited continuing education units?

We Answered:

Continuing education unit credit is different than semester hour or quarter hour credit. Continuing education courses are for self-enrichment, licensing requirements, and workforce development and not for getting a degree. You can not transfer them. But, you can use them for license renewals and job enhancement.

As for all online education being "a scam" - time to wake up to the present - it's not 1981 anymore. Just about every college in the US teaches online now. It's simply another way to deliver classes. Harvard, Cornell, Columbia, UC-Berkeley, UCLA, etc... are all teaching online now. So is your state school board (high school), local community college, and state U.

Continuing education courses are really good for learning cool specialized stuff and for keeping your industry knowledge up-to-date. They're not for getting a degree though.
