Profile of a Successful Student
Part 1
A successful student..
…. Takes responsibility for his/her own leaning
Online learning can be powerful, stimulating, engaging
experience for the student who can work and think independently. However, since
most-if not at all-of the learning takes place on your own time, you will not
have the kind of direct supervision you would in a classroom. Online learning
therefore requires a significant commitment from you. All education comes down
to what you’re willing to invest in the experience-this is particularly true in
the online environment. Commitment, self-discipline and self-motivation are all
key qualities to ensuring success in online courses, so it’s critical that you
feel comfortable with this form of communication. While some courses contain
modules that include videos or other nearly all of your communication with your
classmates and your instructor will be in writing. If these are weak areas for
you, you will want to address those issues prior to enrolling or while enrolled
in an online course. The PSU Writing
Center is available to assist you…. Is willing to be a member of an
online community.
