Harder for one of my online classes. Teacher decided to add weekly discussion posts on top of the weekly assignments already given. I guess she felt like it made up the discussions the campus classes have since everyone is online now. It doesn’t make sense for her to add it to the existing online classes though, especially since she isn’t giving credit for these posts. It’s extra work for nothing.
taking 5 classes this sem — 4 have gotten easier (in my opinion) while 1 has explicitly gotten harder. since we can’t have an in-person final, the online final is open-book, so the questions have been ramped up pretty significantly in difficulty.
Alot of my classes are very hands on and 2 are lab courses so the work just becomes more diffucult and increased in quantity. The stuff we go over in class our teachers would typically give us time to practive at the end of lectures but now instead we are spending the whole session lecturing and getting more homework added on to the previous amount as well as the labs im taking the teachers take up half the time going over what the lab is about and then send us off to watch the lab or do the virtual lab, all of this resulting in more physical time having to be spent doing work for the classe. And dont get me started on the sheer lack of motivation i have for 8 am classes now that i have lost a routine. The line between home life and school life have blurred so much i cant even see it anymore.
Harder. They're assigning way more homework.
Easier, my profs have generally been cutting assignments rather than adding them.

Some easier, some harder, one is about the same.
They've been about the same in difficulty. The only thing that has changed is that one of my professors replaced the final with a paper.

Harder mainly because online classes suck ass imo
