Take a look at the recent SJC post about students who have taken online classes. It may ease your concerns. I thought the following tips generated by SJC students would be helpful to you as you plan for the coming weeks.:

• Designate a work place.
• Block out specific time to focus on school work.
• Make sure your family, roommates and pets know you are “in school mode,” so you have minimal distractions.
• Participate in discussion board conversations to create a community with your classmates.
• Don’t be shy to ask questions if there is something you are not understanding.
