Being an online student can be intimidating, confusing, and difficult! Don’t worry though because you are not alone. I also am clawing my way through this. However, together, it will be so much easier. So, let’s start the semester off and end it with being supportive.Â
So for these first few days, you get to vent about it! No kidding. Share your concerns with each other. Maybe give each other some advice or just a good old bit of support.Â
Here’s what you’ll do (the schedule is at the bottom):
- PLAY with the website. You can’t break it. Honestly. I’ve tried. Click around on all the tabs. See whatâs there! This is our classroom for the semester, so make yourself familiar with the room.Â
