I am looking at taking my masters degree in teaching through an online degree program at Walden University. Would like to hear from people who have done the same. What did you think of their program? Would you go through them again? How was the workload and time spent online?

Thanks : )

This is from their own web site as to time requirements, but each person will be different, some people learn faster, know more to start with and so on

Time Commitment
To get the most from your studies, you should dedicate blocks of time to your program. Students report that they spend 15 to 20 hours a week per course on readings, assignments, research projects, and online discussions.

Some courses require that you log in a specific number of times a week. However, you have the flexibility to choose what times you log in and what blocks of time you set aside for your studies.

For tips on balancing work, family, and education, call 866-492-5336.

Depending on your program, online courses are offered in

16-week semesters (some with consecutive 8-week courses)
12-week quarters (some with consecutive 6-week courses)
Courses have defined start and completion dates. You'll typically have about one week off between semesters or quarters.

Some Ph.D. programs use an individualized research curriculum that has more general completion guidelines.

Start dates are offered throughout the year so that you can begin your program when it's convenient for you.

Call 866-492-5336 for more information about start dates and course calendars for your program.
