We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts.

In this power point, we will try to answer
some common questions students have
about doing an online class. By the time
you get to ESL310, some reading and
writing classes are taught online. This is
just a short introduction. For this class,

also practice doing a short quiz online and
a discussion board topic. Let’s get started!

Internet

answers and solutions to questions
and problems.

your comments to each other.

another person.

7. Question: Is an online class the same as
a self-paced class?
Answer: NO
● Most online classes are NOT self-paced.
● Usually homework, other activities, and
online class participation must be
completed by deadline.
● Many Instructors set the deadline for
midnight on Saturday to assist those who
work Monday-Friday.
● Use a calendar for deadlines.
● Set aside time each week to login.
8. Question: How much time do I have to
spend online?
Answer: That it is up to you.
● You should plan to spend at least the
same amount of time you would spend
on a face-to-face class.
● For a one unit class - you'll spend a
minimum of one hour a week looking at
some of the class resources, checking
on assignments, contributing to
discussions, and posting homework.
● You’ll probably spend another 3 hours
on reading, practice activities and
homework.
9. Question: Do you have to log on at any
particular time?
Answer: Usually not
● You will have deadlines by which to
submit your homework, but WHEN you
complete that work is usually up to you.
● Your instructor MAY require chat sessions
or other real time activities.
● It’s important NOT to leave it to the last
minute to do your work or to submit it.
● If you have trouble connecting to your
ISP or the course website, then your
assignments will be late.
10. Question: Where do we meet for class?
Answer: Online, not in a classroom.
● Other than the orientation meeting,
most online courses don't really "meet"
in a physical face to face sense.
● We'll interact regularly through the
Internet.
● We'll be using some software called
Desire2Learn and using the Los Rios
eLearning web server.
● Course materials are available on the
course web pages, the bulletin boards,
announcements and email.
11. Question: How will we communicate?
Answer: In many ways.
● We'll communicate with each other using
web-based bulletin boards, chat rooms
and email.
● The instructor is available to you through
email, voicemail and virtual office hours.
● On-campus office hours are also available
by appointment.
● These same tools will be used for
student-to-student communication also.
12. Question: Is taking an online class easier
than a “regular” class?
Answer: No
● Some students think an online class is
even more demanding than a face-to-
face class.
● You have to stay motivated and stay
on top of your work for the class.
● The workload in an online class is
usually identical to an on-site class on
the same topic.
13. Question: Do I have to have a computer
at home?
Answer: No
● Access to a computer at home makes it
easier, but you do NOT have to own a
computer for an online class.
● Students can access computers on the
campus in several locations (the
Learning Resource Center, and the
Business Computer lab, for example) or
at other district colleges.
● Some students complete online classes
from work (with permission from their
employer, of course).

helpful in an online class?
Answer:
● Know how to use a web browser.

browser software.

bulletin boards, chat and mailing lists will also be
useful.

instructor expects that you will adhere to
standards of:
