If the internet did not exist, and I had to learn the old fashion way, I would not have passed my classes. I don't know how any of you who did college before internet passed your classes. But online makes easier for stupid people, like me, to pass.

If I don't understand something, I just look it up on the internet. I learn through them. They dumb it down for me.

Online training has its benefits and drawbacks. During my training, I did a lot of online study using a site called Moodle but I had to spend 50% of my time on practical placements.

As part of my job, I have to do continuing education/training to keep my registration. In the past couple of years I've done resuscitation/adult life support updates, venepuncture, catheterisation and verification of death. None of these can be realistically done online, because it requires a trainer to be present to assess your skills.

I'm doing online college and love it. It's great with my health problems, and I've still done things like internships in person. Although I volunteer online too. :)
