 Another way to assess your readiness for online learning is to reflect on your level of comfort with reading information from the Internet. As you have probably noticed, online learning involves a great deal of reading. You may be asked to read information on a website or text from a book. It is very important that you are a careful reader as you move through the content in your online course. Most of the information in your online course is online. Through your course, you will get directions, hyperlinks to information about your course material, quizzes and surveys, and textbook reading assignments. You may also want to refer to the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) or Help Area for additional resources.
