Students should expect due dates for assignments which require participation in the online course throughout the week.
Schedule: Courses are often set up to run weekly. Check the course description for exact course dates and duration. Students typically have several due dates a week where participate in a discussion forum, submit an assignment, or take a quiz.
Time commitment: The time that you spend working on your online course will vary based on the number of assignments.
Relationship building: There are lots of ways in which students interact with their instructor and peers. Students discuss topics in the discussion board, where their instructor and peers provide insight, guidance, and feedback. Students and the instructor also communicate through private assignment correspondence within the course site or via e-mail. Sometimes instructors arrange for a class chat, either using a conference call or an instant message system.
