The field of education is highly rewarding. It presents the unique opportunity of having a direct impact on younger generations. What you teach, and how you teach will have important repercussions.

Computer Skills for Distance Learning

I'm pretty comfortable using a computer. How do I know if I have the right skills for an online class?

Colleges and universities have worked very hard to make distance learning user-friendly. Most instructors — though very intelligent and leaders in their fields — are not tech savvy. Rest assured, it is highly unlikely that your computer skills are not strong enough for an online class.

Talk to your enrollment advisor and ask about the kind of computer skills that are needed for their online classes. Each school is different as is the way they design their online degree programs.

Read about what kinds of technical knowledge is — more or less — standard for distance learning in our article titled Typical Computer Requirements for Online Students.
