Tips for E-Learning
Be able to communicate through writing or over the internet.
Be thorough in reading the course content and class communications.
Be active. Break up your schoolwork with walks and exercise. It will make a difference.
Be self-motivated and self-disciplined. You are in charge of your success.
Be willing to "speak-up". We don't know if you need help unless you tell us. You are not alone. Reach out.
Be aware that high-quality learning can take place without going to a traditional classroom.
Be aware of your motivations and make sure to keep them up.
Be committed to making it work.
General Tips for Learning
Try not to take struggling personally, don't "should" on yourself.
Do what keeps you mentally engaged.
Stay organized! Have a system, whatever works for you.
Collaborate with your peers via the breakout rooms. Teaching others improves your understanding.
Rewatch the videos.
Redo the projects.
Complete every bit of suggested content.
