| I have (or am willing to obtain) access to a computer and an Internet connection at home. |
|
| I feel that high quality learning can take place without having face-to-face interaction. |
|
| The part of education I enjoy the most is the discovery of new information and ideas. |
|
| I can dedicate 4 to 6 hours a week (anytime during the day or night) to participate in the learning process. |
|
| I am not a self-motivated or self-disciplined person. |
|
| Prioritizing tasks -- and then accomplishing them before their deadlines -- is one of my strong points. I am not a procrastinator. |
|

|
| I feel comfortable reading/viewing material from various sources (textbooks, articles, Websites) and integrating it on my own. |
|
| Listening to discussions is not helpful to me. |
|
| I believe in the value of introducing critical thinking into the learning process. |
|
| I am comfortable working independently and do not feel the need for constant attention and direction from the instructor. |
|
| I think increased learning will take place through sharing work, life, and educational experiences as part of the learning process. |
|
| I am comfortable with sending email, browsing websites, and using new technologies. |
|
| I have a high need to take a distance learning course now -- to earn a degree or certificate, for a promotion, or for a new job. |
|
| My lifestyle (family, work, or personal schedule) makes it difficult for you to attend courses during the day. |
|
| I find it difficult to ask an instructor for help when I have trouble understanding a topic and need clarification. |
