Over the course of my four years at this university, I took a lot of online courses. Once I gained access to it, I discovered that both Canvas and Blackboard were quite easy to use. My lecturers were very communicative and kept in touch with the students frequently. Open forums and discussion boards are widely used to enhance communication and group collaboration in the classroom. This method of taking classes was one I enjoyed because it gave me more flexibility with my schedule and let me explore and learn more about life at Florida State.
