Top 10 Tips for distance learning success

The advantages of distance learning are quite clear. There are many reasons why you might not want or be able to leave your country, city, or home. Distance learning is more affordable than attending a top university, as you don't have to worry about costs of moving house, travel, or finding somewhere to live. And, as long as you stay focused, motivated, and keep the studies at the forefront of your mind, you can do all of the work you need for a good degree from the comfort of your own home. Studies have revealed the distance learning drop-out rate to be approximately 15 per cent higher than the drop-out rate associated with traditional universities, so QS Top Universities has put together some tips to make sure you succeed if you choose to do distance learning.

1. Become familiar and ready with course materials
Whether you are taking a single class via distance learning or will complete your bachelor degree online you should be ready to use your materials in advance. Obviously you will have regular access to a computer. Familiarize yourself with electronic programs used for the course and purchase books listed in your first reading lists.

2. Make sure internet access is sufficient

Nothing is worse than spending the first year of your online degree trying to get consistent internet access. If your internet provider is unreliable, switch before courses start.

3. Set a study schedule and stick to it

You will know, from looking at your course load, whether this means four hours per week or 35. Stick to your schedule in order to keep up with the pace, meet deadlines, and ultimately succeed.

4. Create a workspace

Believe it or not, your environment plays a big part in learning. Make a clutter-free, comfortable space with adequate light. Make this space your learning space and nothing else.

5. Set goals

And meet them. Your first goal may just be to organise your workload and that's a great place to start when you first begin studying for your undergraduate degree. But set even bigger goals for yourself as you move on, like aiming to complete your bachelors degree!

6. Don't wait 'til the last minute

As with any course it is more than wise not to procrastinate completing your coursework. With distance learning, you have to remember that you are relying on technology to submit work. Don't wait until the last minute to finish and submit a project, because you never know what glitches technology will have in store for you.

7. Contact your instructor regularly

Keep in touch with your instructor and regularly contact him or her with any questions you may have. It is also a good idea to discuss your progress with a real person.

8. Take practice exams

Practice makes perfect. Time yourself while taking practice exams so you know whether or not you are assessing an exam within the allotted time.

9. Make or join a study group

Two heads are often better than one. Many distance learning online programs can link you up with your classmates. If not, contact your instructor and ask to be put into contact with a few classmates. Your group can then meet in the real world or via email (or another electronic method) or telephone. Such groups can also keep you motivated. Of course, this won't compare to organically choosing your study mates, as one does in traditional universities, but it can still be worthwhile, both academically and socially.

10. Reward yourself
You're never too old for a reward. Say to yourself that if you meet your learning goals within the time you have set you will buy yourself that sweater you wanted or a ticket to the theatre. Motivation usually comes easier when you have something to look forward to. Long-term you can look forward to graduating from your degree course, but short-term rewards are very helpful. Always having something to look forward to will most likely help you stay dedicated.
