Response 20 1) Ability to access class info in many different ways, eg lectures available on tv AND on my iPod, and lecture notes that can be viewed from any computer w/ internet. 2) The use of social media to encourage student interaction was very successful.

Response 81 The distance education courses fit well with my home and work schedule. Without them I would only be able to take 1 night class at a time and probably take forever to get my degree. The set up and implementation of the courses that I have taken so far is wonderful because as I said it is very difficult for me to make it in to the college for courses so taking tests and exams on line as well as turning in assignments has been extremely helpful and convenient for me.

Response 88 I liked having a syllabus that had the whole semester lined out. What we would be studying, when to expect test, what assignments would ne given and when they would be due. That was the greatest part of both of my online classes. My husband had an online class that would post assignments and tests randomly throughout the semester. I was soooo greatful my teachers had it all laid out in the beginning. It helped me stay prepared and ready.
Response 89 it was really suitable for my schedule
Response 90 Distance learning is my only means of acquiring college credit. I live on an isolated island that does not have college programs that provides a wide range of courses.
Response 91 I loved that my professor in my ED 285 course was always available to ask my small questions and I learned A LOT! I loved in the ICS 100 course that we were able to take as little or as much time on our assignments as we wanted. The proffessor responded to my questions promptly.

Response 135 I liked the instructor most of all. EVERYTHING was so organized that it made my first online course a bit easier to understand from the beginning-this helped a lot!
Response 136 I thought that distance education is a positive experience because sometimes people tend to be busy during the day and can't find a way to school. They may take online courses to help them achieve their goals in life. I like using Laulima. It is very easy and simple to use. I have no problems in using this distance educational route.
Response 137 The convenience of being home when I had time 15 minutes or an hour or two to sit down and check Laulima, and that it could be almost 24 hours!! (except for the downtime each morning 2-3 a.m.?) After each semester begins, I will usually stress a bit the first 2 to 4 weeks, until I have my deadlines and required work patterns for each class on a sort of schedule - and from then on - I love it. I only wish the entire degree could be completed online.

Response 324 For the type of course I took, which was a business technology, computer-type course, there was really no need for classroom activity or student interaction. This class was perfect for distance learning since it was self-motivating and the student simply needed to follow instructions and learn the material on the computer. The instructor was easy to access through email and any questions I had were taken care of promptly. The teacher was there for keeping the student on track with deadlines and reminders. I would definitely take another distance course depending on the topic; it was a wonderful experience since I could work from home and could work when I had free time. You simply can't beat a long distance course for absolute convenience! Although I don't think it would work for every kind of course, where discussion and interaction with teacher/students are extremely beneficial.

Response 330 See above. It's primarily the flexibility to learn online at my own schedule, especially since the times I can study are the times when onsite campus classes are limited (late at night and weekends). Plus I find the professors much more responsive in an online class than onsite classes. Thanks for the opportunity to learn. This is probably the best way for me to eventually get my AA from LCC.

Response 443 It was fun doing the "forum" and communicating with other students and the staff. Just doing the work online was totally interesting in spite of the personal issues I had because I don't really know the "ins and outs" of getting from one program to another. But I know more today than I did when I first started so I feel good about it and want to continue doing online courses as much as possible. I work late and can't always get into the classes I want to and if I can take a class online, then I'm happy.

Response 445 i like that i can do things on my own time but have to be real disciplined.
Response 446 Not having to go to class is great. Being able to learn when I want and how I want is great. Online classes are good for when you have to take more than 4 classes because you don't actually have to add on another hour to your school day, you could just work on it on saturday or whatever. I also think these classes benefit people who don't own a car or can't drive a car to school everyday. Online classes are awesome.
Response 447 I was able to do it on my own time and at my own pace. The prof was very helpful and inviting. It felt as if I had met her before. She always made herself available when I needed help or had any questions. Her teaching skills were not lacking even though it was an online course.
