Is there any monetary assistance for long distance online learners?
You do not have to be online on your computer the entire time you’re working on an online course. In fact, the majority of your work can be done off-line which can save the student money. Here are some examples of tasks to perform online and off-line. Online Tasks: • finding and printing assignments and lecture notes • using online resources such as library materials & web sites • exchange e-mail with professor • participate in online discussions or exchange e-mail with other registered students Off-line Tasks: • reading assignments, textbooks, articles, etc. • working on computational problems • synthesizing materials and crafting outlines • writing papers (that can be attached to e-mail upon completion.)
