MATH 60: Are you ready for this
online mathematics course?
It is
almost a requirement that distance learning students be more focused and
better time managers than students taking the course on campus, and that
they be able to work both independently and as group members. Other
helpful characteristics include strong self-motivation, self-discipline
and assertiveness. -
