although there are a variety of websites and tools that can teach you different things, I think that to really learn you need to be enrolled in some type of program. There are many different types of degree or certification programs that are offered by accredited universities. This offers structure and tools that are otherwise unavailable.

What kind of online communication do you think works best with online courses? I also agree with Laura who says she thinks that to really learn you need to be enrolled in some type of program. It does have certain helpful resources and tools that may not be available otherwise. I also think it becomes easier to get placement in a school when dealing with an accredited university.
