What describes a successful e-Learning student?

Be Self-motivated. With no regular class meetings or an instructor looming in front of a traditional classroom, successful eLearners have to rely on themselves to ensure their work gets done.
Be Willing and able to invest time. eLearning classes are as demanding as traditional, campus-based classes, so you should expect to make the same time commitment.
Be Organized. You must be responsible for your own work, schedule, and deadlines.
Be Comfortable with technology. Because eLearning relies entirely on various forms of technology, you should be prepared and well-versed in those technologies.
Have an email account and be able to send, receive, attach, and open attachments.
Be Independent and assertive. To be successful, eLearners must be willing to speak up when they need help, and be able to take charge of their education.
