This week I've been working on completing the school's online orientation module. It was WAAAYYYY more involved than I anticipated. It involved posting to discussion boards, writing several short papers, and working through several "technical" problem solving processes.
My bottom line conclusion is that online education requires a fairly high level of experience with navigating the internet. I don't think anyone brand new to using electronic media could deal with the hassle of become competent in the use of the media as well as master the content being taught.
I have also devoted about 45 minutes per day to the "policy" paper for the Health Policy class. Still not done with it though. Unlike LJ, I tend to write in layers, improving the overall quality with each revision of the prior draft.
Not a lot of exciting stuff to share right now until I get through these two things. The next course -- Business Intelligence -- begins June 28.
