My brother is taking a supplementary Algebra II course online. After he reads the material online, he can select homework problems or tests to work on. I don't think that online courses can really work without a physical teacher present. there's a sense of disconnect from the class, because all you seem to be doing is reading text by yourself. There's no one actually there explaining concepts to you, nor do you have classmates to relate this experience to. I feel like a lot of discipline is needed as well to actively complete these online materials because no one is making you. Let's be honest. When you take an online course, are you really seeking higher knowledge, understanding, and exposure? Or are you just doing it for easy units?
This project is designed to show what we as students have to face to pursue Higher Education...
