Set yourself a routine
Imagine your online course as a face-to-face course and to
"attend" on a regular basis.
Don't fall behind! Check in to the course every day, even if
there is nothing to upload or complete; you never know when
the instructor might post something important.
Complete assignments as required by the syllabus and submit
them on time.
Give yourself breaks to focus your eyes on something besides
a screen.
Attend to needed chores and responsibilities when you feel
brain tired and return when you are refreshed. Routinely save
your work by using a portable backup, the cloud, or your
computer's hard drive.
