What is online learning?


Online learning refers to classes conducted over the Internet. Courses and programs are offered online, using the web and email. Students register for courses, and an instructor teaches the material. Assignments and discussions take place through e-mail. UCLA Extension courses are "asynchronous," which means that you can log on any time to participate. Courses do have a start date and an end date, with assignments scheduled by the instructor.

The Writers’ Program Online

The world is always in need of writers who can illuminate the human condition—or provide a momentary escape from it. As the largest university-related writing program in the United States, the UCLA Extension Writers’ Program provides thousands of aspiring and practicing writers with the necessary tools to make their stories come to life every year. Now, wherever you are in the world, you can be one of them—from the comfort and convenience of your own home or office.
