在線學(xué)習(xí)的學(xué)生常犯的4大錯誤

Online courses give students the flexibility to earn a college degree while juggling responsibilities such as work and family. But it is not uncommon for students to experience a few hiccups along the way. Smooth out your path to an online degree by avoiding these 10 big mistakes.

在線課程讓學(xué)生可以靈活地獲得大學(xué)學(xué)位，同時兼顧工作和家庭等責(zé)任。但學(xué)生在學(xué)習(xí)過程中出現(xiàn)一些小問題并不罕見。通過避免以下10大錯誤，你可以順利獲得在線學(xué)位。

Skipping over accreditation

跳過認(rèn)證

"Accreditation can impact eligibility for both federal and state financial aid, as well as competitive stance in the employment field. Regional accreditation ensures quality standards and ensures that programs/institutions are providing students with necessary job skills and support," Lynette O'Keefe, director of research at the Online Learning Consortium, wrote in an email. Before you enroll, check the program's website for its credentials and verify they are recognized by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation.

認(rèn)證可以影響聯(lián)邦和州財政援助的資格，以及在就業(yè)領(lǐng)域的競爭地位。地區(qū)認(rèn)證確保了質(zhì)量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，確保項目/機構(gòu)為學(xué)生提供必要的工作技能和支持，”在線學(xué)習(xí)聯(lián)盟(Online Learning Consortium)的研究主管萊內(nèi)特·奧基夫(Lynette O'Keefe)在一封電子郵件中寫道。在您注冊之前，請查看該項目的網(wǎng)站，查看其證書，并確認(rèn)其已獲得高等教育認(rèn)證委員會的認(rèn)可。

Ignoring their learning preferences

忽視他們的學(xué)習(xí)偏好

Online courses require discipline, so if you are disorganized or prone to procrastination, you may want to think twice before enrolling in one. "The bottom line is that online learning is no less rigorous or difficult, and in fact, works more efficiently and effectively for many students," O'Keefe says. She adds that students "will need to be a bit more self-directed in terms of pacing themselves" and in accessing online resources and seeking help.

在線課程需要紀(jì)律，因此，如果你擾亂紀(jì)律或有拖延傾向，你可能需要三思而后行。奧基夫說:“最重要的是，在線學(xué)習(xí)并不是不嚴(yán)格或不困難，事實上，對許多學(xué)生來說，在線學(xué)習(xí)更有效。”她補充說，學(xué)生們“在自我調(diào)節(jié)方面需要更多的自我指導(dǎo)”，在獲取在線資源和尋求幫助方面也需要更多的自我指導(dǎo)。

Not reviewing the curriculum

不復(fù)習(xí)課程

Students eyeing a particular career field will want to take classes that properly prepare them for the work world. The curriculum for an online bachelor's degree in computer science, for example, should include technical work with operating systems and programming languages. Jason Ruckert, vice chancellor and chief digital learning officer at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Florida, says students should check school websites for "information about the degree program online, degree requirements, course descriptions, specialization options, possible career fields and even possibly syllabi." Additionally students may want to call the institution with questions.

著眼于某一特定職業(yè)領(lǐng)域的學(xué)生，會想要上一些為他們進(jìn)入職場做好充分準(zhǔn)備的課程。例如，在線計算機科學(xué)學(xué)士學(xué)位的課程應(yīng)該包括操作系統(tǒng)和編程語言方面的技術(shù)工作。佛羅里達(dá)Embry-Riddle航空大學(xué)副校長兼首席數(shù)字學(xué)習(xí)官Jason Ruckert說，學(xué)生應(yīng)該在學(xué)校網(wǎng)站上查找“關(guān)于在線學(xué)位項目、學(xué)位要求、課程描述、專業(yè)選擇、可能的職業(yè)領(lǐng)域甚至可能的教學(xué)大綱的信息。”此外，學(xué)生可能想打電話給該機構(gòu)提出問題。

Underestimating the difficulty

低估了難度

"Online degrees are not easier – a common myth. And many online students are working full or part time while often raising a family. Adding a degree to the mix requires thoughtful time management and discipline," says Nancy Cervasio, executive director of learner services for the online arm of Arizona State University—Tempe. Other experts add that students should reach out for help if they struggle because robust school resources exist to assist students, whether on campus or online.

在線學(xué)位并不容易——這是一個普遍的誤解。許多在線學(xué)生全職或兼職工作，同時還要養(yǎng)家糊口。亞利桑那州立大學(xué)坦佩分校(Arizona State University-Tempe)在線學(xué)習(xí)服務(wù)部門的執(zhí)行董事南希•瑟瓦西奧(Nancy Cervasio)表示:“要想在這兩者之間增加一個學(xué)位，就需要有深思熟慮的時間管理和紀(jì)律。”其他專家補充說，無論是在校園里還是網(wǎng)上，如果學(xué)生遇到困難，他們應(yīng)該尋求幫助，因為學(xué)校有強大的資源來幫助學(xué)生。
