Anyone studying online? Share your experience?
Hi,
This is not just about studying, the stress has led me to eat terribly and gain back my losses.
I am nearly finished this semester - I only have 16 days left (thank god) but they will be tough ones because all my assessments are due.
Anywho. I have found studying online to be really bizarre. No classes, no tutorials, no workshops, no nothing. I understand that this is a little bit odd and that other online courses have these things - but many don't. Including mine.
It's like a series of exams (which include assignments) and no help nor even teaching is offered.
I complained after failing my first assignment that I needed help (just someone to proof read) and I ended up having to take my complaint all the way to the dept head.
Blah. Anyway. It is a bit of stress relief to complain.
Can anyone relate to my experience? I want to know I'm not the only one.

I think that this is a very normal experience. I am completing my degree this June and I did the majority of it online. In person classes are much more informational and clear, Online it seems like the teachers aren't really invested.0
