We are in an era where online learning is a fad. There is a risk of being left out or left behind if we don’t catch up in the ‘e-learning’ race. So how does one become a successful e-learner? Here are some tips. Know your course After you have decided to enroll for a particular online course, go through the course syllabus and other relevant details regarding the course. Get in touch with the trainer for more information if you can’t find it online. Be realistic about your learning schedule Plan your learning schedule in such a way that you give enough importance and time to the course. Insufficient time to do your online course would be both frustrating and futile. Cultivate Self-motivation and self-discipline While it is granted that e-learning gives you freedom and flexibility, you shouldn’t overlook the responsibility that comes with it. It takes dedication, discipline and diligence to pursue and complete an e-course. Set realistic goals and deadlines, stick to them – Procrastinate tomorrow Maintain a calendar or program planner or diary to plan the number of hours, number of days, weeks, etc. that you’ll need to allot for the online learning course. Keep a track of any tests, project submissions or other course related aspects. Be in regular touch with the instructor. And above all – avoid ‘Procrastination’. Interruptions and distractions – they can wait Switch that TV off, put your mobile on silent mode (switch it off, better still), stay away from those chat rooms and messengers; tell your friends that you won’t be coming for that movie. All these interruptions and distractions won’t get you a job, but your online course most certainly will. Get the point? Test your progress – evaluate yourself when pursuing an online course, it is important to test yourself regularly and evaluating your progress. Keep reading the course objectives once in a while and check how you are faring. Ensure you are well versed with the course material/lesson before attempting the test. Don’t try shortcuts or crash course style. Interact, participate and communicate It’s crucial that you interact with fellow e-learners, not just instructors. Take advantage of your ‘anonymity’ online and participate in discussions, debates and other course related forums. Digital learning is a great place to start overcoming shyness and fears related to public speaking. Communicate with other learners, expand your network judiciously. It could be a nice learning experience to interact with students from not just your field but diverse domains. Follow these tips and be a fast and efficient e-learner. Good luck!
