Student Comments
This is my first day of online learning and I have had to
change how I approach my time for study and my time for daily
tasks
I am looking forward to doing this course and
expanding my knowledge
It’s just an intro course to help get familiarize with D2L and online learning strategies. I
would suggest everyone do it, its really useful
Being an online student takes dedication, organization and the support of those around
you. I struggle staying focused when I wish I was doing
something else…
Next Steps?• What does the future look like with this course?• learners new to online – not tech savvy• learners who grew up with technology – already familiar with LMS
– “digital natives”
