BEST PRACTICES:
For every one credit hour in which you enroll, you should spend approximately two to three hours outside of class studying. Therefore, to help determine the course load most appropriate for you, use the formula: 3 credit hours (1 course) = 3 hours in class per week = 6-9 hours study time per week. This is an 8 week course, the hours should be multiplied by 2, thus 12-18 hours a week. 12-18 hours is should be plenty of time to get the coursework in this class done.
****I understand you have busy lives with work, family, children, etc. but get into good studying habits the first week to be successful. Schedule time, or schedule the same time every week for homework. Give yourself extra time just in case emergencies come up. This class is set up for you to be successful, but you have to do your part. ****
