Plus for some of us (me!), we can’t bear to sit in a classroom. Give me a book, IC, whatever, I can learn it quicker and grasp it, but I can’t stand traditional learning and sitting in a classroom. It’s easier to me, cheaper (which Snazzle covered nicely ), and I don’t have to deal with the person in the back of their classroom talking on their cell phone, or doing their nails (I’ve had both happen).
Plus, I’m only 26, but I’m married, own a home, working on my career, moving practically cross country later next year, having a baby next Summer, etc. I don’t feel like I have a lot in common with the 18-21 year olds I used to take classes with, and the teaching styles used by many physical classes just don’t work for me. I want to be done quickly, and start working on my Master’s. I don’t need the socialization or interaction in a physical class- I need the degree.
