Another reason why I have really enjoyed studying online is
how I am able to take my work ANYWHERE! This feature is especially convenient
during summer sessions as I can do my work on a dock, at the beach, in the
park, or on the side of a cliff if I want to. I encourage you to reinvent your
study and homework locations, especially with good weather!
One of my favorite moments while attending online courses
was during the fall session when I was enrolled in Adult Developmental
Psychology and I was reading Tuesday with Morrie on my back porch with my
coffee, my favorite tree, the birds, and tears streaming down my face. Needless
to say this environment was much nice than the average classroom and it allowed
me to really connect to the subject matter; I know I would have held back on
just how much the readings touched me if it were in a face-to-face discussion.
Also, I have learned in my current course, Cognitive
Psychology, that studying and learning in different places helps with memory as
it cuts down on environmental association of the new skills or facts being
learned. Create your own classroom? Sounds great to me!
