Online Schooling

Studies have shown that over the past few years, the number of people that attend online universities has increased. I think that is probably because people's lives have gotten SO hectic and they just don't have the time to drive to a university where they have to sit without distraction for more than an hour at a time. These days with people having to work more hours to make more money and kids game practices after school and making dinner and helping with homework, after all that there is no time to get dressed and drive to a far away university and sit for a few hours and concentrate. With an online university you can work at your own pace and if you have an interuption like a child needing you for something, you can step away from the computer for a few minutes and when you come back you won't have missed anything because it's YOU who is in charge of your own learning. The hardest part about taking classes online is finding a reputible university. There are so many online colleges these days and it's hard to tell who is accredited. There is a great one called capella university that is accredited by The Higher Learning Commission. This means that when you get your degree and you go for a job interview, they can see that you learned from a reliable source and not some shady online website that just was after your money. At Capella they offer a number of degree programs in bachelor and graduate options such as Psychology, business, public safety, education, etc. The university itself serves over 20,000 students world wide.
