The Learning Experience
AIU Online has improved the "traditional" class structure where you listen to
a lecture, take notes, memorize them and then regurgitate the information back
to the instructor on an exam. Instead, we've taken a more practical approach
for today's busy professional. AIU Online's degree programs are designed to not
only test your memory but also your comprehension and ability to properly apply
information learned in class in a real-world setting.
At AIU Online, we realize that working in the professional world is not just
about memorizing information for exams. You will not show up to work and be asked
to hand in a multiple-choice exam at the end of the day. On the contrary, you
may be asked to manage a project or develop a new business plan or
marketing strategy. You might be asked to manage a team. AIU Online's degree
program were developed with these real-world concepts in mind.
As an AIU Online student, you will be engaged in classes and online learning
that will give you information and provide you with skills that can be used in
the workplace. Instead of exams, you will complete individual and group projects
to ensure you've truly grasped and can apply the concepts learned in the course.
And we believe this approach truly tests whether a student has learned the course
material.
AIU Online students not only interact with each other in dynamic group situations
but also correspond individually with classmates and instructors throughout their
courses.
