“It felt more personal and open because everyone had to give input in order to pass the class; but in this way we

all got to know each other much better without any

fears or shyness getting in the way”

“I liked having the lessons right there so

I could refer back to them as often as I

needed.”

“TIME!!! I work full-time and had 2 on campus

classes, so it was wonderful to have an

additional class under my belt, but be able to do so in my pjs in my home as

late night as I needed it to be.”

“Ability to dive into the lesson without the

other classmates slowing down the

class.”

“The covenience is the major factor. I am

a returning student and work full time. I

hope to be able to complete my studies

online.”

“Not having to hear students talk while

instructor does.”

teachers notes seem better because they are in

writing and sometimes with lectures, points are

not as clear.”

“I feel that people tend to open up more when not in a face to

face situation.”

17

“I live in Minnesota, so obviously being able to take a class needed to transfer for SDSU; the

distance education was very valuable because I

couldn’t come to San Diego at all for the course

and I didn’t have to.”

actually.”

my goals

“There are three types of people in this world:

Those who make things happen, Those who watch things happen and Those who wonder what happened. We all have a choice. You can decide

which type of person you want to be. I have always chosen to be in the first

group.” Mary Kay
