Are online courses at Highline self-paced?
No. The online version of the class will be similar to the face-to-face class, except you don’t meet at campus on a regular basis. This means you’ll have textbook reading, regular assignments, tests, online lectures and other class work to do on a regular basis. Online classes take just as much time as regular classes. For a 5 credit class, you’ll need to schedule 15 hours a week. You will need to schedule this time and honor that schedule. If you are a person who tends to procrastinate or who is not very self motivated, you might have a difficult time with a distance learning class.
