As you can see, the bulk of my classes have been taken online. I love traveling and I end up traveling a lot with work as well, so online classes are perfect for me. Obviously the sub-categories of my degree are interesting to me, so my strategy in choosing my classes we’re finding the ones that were the most interesting, or the ones I deemed most useful from a career stand point. If I had it my way, I would’ve taken one or two classes a semester to really be able to focus on each subject more intimately. But college isn’t set up to be taken at that pace, and I don’t have all the time in the world. I have already added an extra year to my college career. None the less, the classes I’ve taken transfer over to the online world quite well. I haven’t had any issues with my learning experiences in online courses, nor have I ran into problems with having more than one focuses of study. I have really enjoyed my college career and the way I took it.
