Have you ever done one?

Personally I haven't and I don't think I would be up for it. I'm really bad at getting work done and I think it would be much worse if I wasn't going to classes and stuff.

If you have done one, what have you done?
If not, would you ever consider doing one?

I like the idea but like you, I couldn't do it. I wouldn't be motivated enough to actually do work. Think I would be scared too by not actually having irl people to tell me things to my face and help me and stuff.

[Kardan]

No I've not, and no I wouldn't consider doing one. I'd get too distracted.

[scottish]

No, i'd rather do it in person at an establishment.

Did an arts and philosophy one with Open Uni but life got in the way even though I didn't have to go anywhere somehow, also I missed having actual debate and interactive learning etc so while it's good for literally just getting given materials to learn from it didn't end up being any more useful for me than a few hours on wikipedia would

[Alysha]

Even though I hardly ever attend lectures as it is, I don't think I could do an online based thing, unless it was more tutorial based than anything else.

[Inseriousity.]

I did a MOOC on intro to scriptwriting (its one of my hobbies) and it was fairly interactive, it had discussion forums to discuss the topics and there was a community there. I just wasn't a part of it, I get distracted too.

I'm someone who learns a lot from and is motivated by other people so I feel like losing that level of interaction would harm me greatly. I'd be limited to my own thoughts and that's not something I like the idea of!

I like the idea of it, but I still think that it's necessary to attend some sort of class in order to keep motivated.
