Hey everyone, I have space to fit in an extra class for next semester and thought about taking it online for flexibility. Anyone have experience with easy college core classes that can be taken online?
Sure, I might be able to help with some suggestions. Keep in mind, though, that "easy" is relative and can depend on your personal skills and interests. That said, here are a few core classes that many students find more straightforward:
1. Introductory Sociology: This subject often focuses on understanding societal structures, human interactions, and cultural elements. It usually includes discussion, reading, and essays, and might be more manageable if you enjoy analyzing social patterns.
2. Western Civilization or World History: If you're a fan of history or have learned a significant amount about it in high school, you might find these sorts of classes quite approachable. They usually involve a fair amount of reading and essay writing.
3. General Psychology: This course usually covers a broad range of topics, including human development, personality, abnormal psychology, and social psychology. The course can especially be an easy one if you find psychological concepts fascinating.
4. Art Appreciation or Music Appreciation: These courses tend to be considered easier by many students because they often focus on appreciating art or music movements, analysis of pieces, and understanding of historical context, rather than needing to produce anything yourself.
However, remember that it's not all about seeking "easy" classes – it's important to consider what skills you want to develop, what knowledge you want to acquire, and how the class fits into your broader academic and career plans. It's also a good idea to check with your college advisor before selecting any classes to ensure that your choice aligns with your academic goals.
