Learning online is both similar to and different from learning in a classroom. As a student you will still read, work on your own and as a member of a group, complete assignments and interact with your teacher. As well, you will complete quizzes, add to discussions, complete research and report online. However, you can not do everything online. Most courses will require you to research and practice skills off line. Discuss your choice of online courses with your guidance counsellor. You will require access to a computer and should be comfortable using one. Please make sure you do the self-test before registering for an online course.
