I'm not sure what your major is but according to the official TESU to study.com chart that course can be used as a free elective only. So I don't think it will count towards your UL credit in your Area of Study not even for a Liberal Studies degree. All study.com courses that count for UL at TESU besides free electives have assignments like essays which you must to do to earn credit. If you are one a time crunch don't do this one unless you need more free electives.

To answer your question, I've done about 1/3 of the quizzes and they weren't difficult at all, but then it got harder. I started taking it because I had previous experience with kids and wanted to learn more about classroom management, but then I realized it didn't count for anything (I had enough free electives) and was getting harder so I stopped

natshar is correct, EDU courses normally don't count as AOS courses at TESU, meaning there's no reason to take an UL course, as it won't count for anything extra. An UL Free Elective course doesn't count towards the number of UL credits you need.

I completed Classroom management. It is not very difficult- I would rate it a 5/10 on the difficulty scale. You need to memorise some terminologies- that’s what makes it a bit difficult. And yes, it can be used as a free elective only. I completed it for my free electives.

Got it. Thanks for pointing that out! I went back and saw one my electives can count as an upper level aos class. So I requested to have that moved. So now I need one upper level class and two electives. 
Can electives be pretty much any LL classes??

Thanks for the input! I really appreciate it

If you are interested in doing some Edu courses for free electives, I can recommend Special Ed. History & Law. It is short- just about 40 or so lessons. You might need to memorize some legal terms & acts. But it didn’t feel very difficult. I actually enjoyed the course, and found it very informative.

Differentiated Instruction is a great course too. Again, not too long, about 60 lessons. And Edu 101: Foundations of Education was a breeze for me, as I had already completed other courses. I think this one has 90 lessons. But very easy and straightforward.

Free electives can be absolutely ANYTHING that counts as college credit. Even PhysEd. If you want to get in a swimming or tennis course at the local CC, that can count. Personal Finance (I took the DSST, but other providers have it too) is a popular one. Easy for us established folks, good stuff to know for the younger students.


RE: Education 103: Classroom Management on study.com - natshar - 03-18-2019

Free electives can be UL or LL. Anything at all as long as it college-level coursework and has a passing grade it counts. (For courses at an actual college it can be a D or above, but no D-). This is the most flexible and easiest to fill part of the degree. There are even free courses from Sophia and TEEX that make popular free electives. For me, all mine came up all the random courses I took at Community College that didn't count anywhere else.


RE: Education 103: Classroom Management on study.com - Sb2013 - 03-19-2019

How do u know if an UL class counts for the UL(AOS) LS area??? Since tesu has the general options or a concentration option. I thought for the general option you could pick classes from concentration area.
For example under business they have man 301. However my advisor said that can't be used for the UL requirements. He told me to ask for approval or take some Dsst tests.
Now I'm just confused on how u know what counts etc. Someone help me. Pleaseeeeee
