Q: Why did you originally choose eLearning for the first semester?

A: “I was worried about safety and found that it was easier for me to get acclimated to eLearning.”

Q: Are you going back for the second semester? Why or why not?

A: “I am not because I feel that changing my learning and working environment would do more harm than good.”

Q: Was eLearning what you expected? Was there anything that surprised you?

A: “It was about what I had expected. A few things can be more difficult but for me I found that I have more flexibility with how I do my work and my environment.”

Q: Did you have to come to school for practices, games, tests, etc.? How did it feel?

A: “I had to go to school for band practice which I think was good because It’s nice to see all my peers in a safe setting and it’s good to practice as a group.”

Q: What is something you’ve learned from eLearning about studying, time management, etc.?

A: “I’ve learned that time seems to fly when assignments are due and it’s better get to them as soon as they’re assigned.”

Q: Has eLearning changed you as a student in any way? If so, how? If not, how did you maintain the same student mindset and study habit as you would’ve in-person?

A: “I managed to keep my mindset as a student by maintaining a cycle that would keep me productive.”

Q: If there was anything you could tell yourself before you started the first semester, what would it be?

A: “It’s best to start on an assignment or project as soon as you can.”
