wow you are pointless

i might take one soon. how bad are they? i was told it was alot harder online , but i tend to learn better by myself.

holy shit this sounds like a terrible idea. there's no way you could learn it as well as in a classroom.

I took a discrete math course that was partially online and it wasn't too bad.

I got the best grade in any math class of my entire educational career with an online course.

For me doing "work" online means looking at wikipedia, going to the page for whatever I'm studying, then looking up random simpsons facts, then youtubing clips from simpsons episodes, then an hour passes, then I google whatever I started looking up, say oh I got it, then back to youtube

I admire anyone who can actually focus on an online class

I'm planning on taking Liberal Arts Math online so it should be easy.

i took my first math class online, and it was a bad idea. I basically didnt do any of the studying just looked up how to do the work, the tests you can cheat on as well. So then when I got to the second math I had to take it in class, and I didnt know anything from Math 101, I had to go back and take it again.

I'm curious, can you please explain what Liberal Arts Math is? Because from the title it sounds like it could just as well be called Joke Math.

Liberal Arts Math 1
This course is a general survey course in mathematics and covers a number of traditional, independent topics and will include topics related to mathematical logic, sets and systematic counting, probability, statistics, geometry and critical thinking skills. One of its intents is to provide preparation for the Florida CLAST test for those students who may need to take it. This course satisfies three credits of the mathematics requirements outlined in the General Education Requirements, but is not a prerequisite to any other mathematics course. (Credit will not be given for both MGF 1113 and MGF 1106.) 47 contact hours.
Liberal Arts Math 2
This course presents topics demonstrating the beauty and utility of mathematics to the general student population and to provide knowledge and skills useful for college, life, and career. The course will include topics related to patterns and reasoning, growth and symmetry, linear and exponential growth, and personal finance; mathematical connections with music, art, architecture and nature will be explored. History of mathematics, critical thinking skills, problem solving strategies and appropriate use of technology will be used throughout the course. This course satisfies three credits of the mathematics requirements outlined in the General Education Requirements, but is not a prerequisite to any other mathematics course

Haha yea, and now I regret it. I hate math, because I have to spend so much time doing it to understand it. arg.
