For Non-Traditional students who lead busy lives with many responsibilities, online college is the answer because online classes can happen at any time, students can take classes at home, and students don't have to commute to the classes on a traditional campus.
Online classes can happen at any time and are convenient. The flexibility of online classes meshes with an adult student's busy schedule. Some students do their homework during the week and skip the weekend, while other adult students only do their homework during the weekend. Online classes are convenient and do have have set times where students have to show up.
Students don't have to worry about traffic, parking to rush to the traditional campus. Students can just sit at their computer in their pajamas, take online classes and spend more time with their family. By taking out the commute, students can concentrate and spend more time on their class work. Many students like to do their homework before their kids wake up in the early morning hours or at night after the kids go to sleep.
Traditional students like the traditional campus because they miss the social life, the growing up with peers, and the fun times they have where they create memories and bond with lifelong friends.
My non-traditional students are grateful for the internet for giving them the opportunity to get a college education they otherwise don't have time to fit into their schedules. And as an online teacher, I have to be available days and nights, weekdays and weekends.
I love to see my students succeed!
Which do you prefer, online or face to face college class? Are you a traditional or non-traditional student? Are you an online teacher or a face to face teacher?
