Distance
Education: Is a Virtual Classroom for You?
Part 4 of 4
Emphasis on
the Written Word
Most of the
communication, as well as the course work, in distance-learning classes is
written. That’s a plus, because the focus on the written word gives you the
opportunity to develop as a writer – and strong writing is a serious weakness
for you, virtual education may not be the best educational option until you
improve your skill. Yes most of distance education is the written word;
therefore, you need to be a good reader, love to read, and love writing also. Most
of your assignments will be written and submitted to the instruction in the
written format. Your penmanship needs to be excellent, spelling great, sentence
structure above average, vocabulary extraordinary. You need to have online access
with reliable equipment. If your Internet communication at home isn't working
you can’t do online education from home and will need to go to someplace where
you do have access to the Internet.
Decide
Whether It’s Right for You
Distance education isn't for everyone, but it just might be for you. You really should seek it out
and give it a try. You never know until you try. You might even fall in love
with distance education. While distance education might be the perfect
alternative for some students, it’s not the right choice for everyone. So
carefully consider your unique needs and interests and give distance education
a try; then, decide if it’s right for you.
CHOOSE
THE RIGHT!!!
