Best Student Distance Learning Practices NTLC

Preparing for Online Courses Set distance learning goals for yourself, create a grit plan: What 2-3 goals do you want to achieve in the next few days, weeks, and months? Keep them specific, measurable, achievable, and time sensitive (e.g., keep my planner organized by updating it each night; actively engage with my instructors and other students by posting at least one question in one of my classes every day). How do each of these goals connect with what matters the most in your life? What is it about the things that matter to you that motivates you to accomplish these goals? What will it mean to you to

achieve your goals? Who or what are your resources of positive energy, strength, and affirmation (people, activities, books, videos, etc.) that sustain you during tough times? Who are people and relationships that drain you? List them so that you can minimize the impact they have on you and your goals.
