I'm just wondering if the online courses from either school requires a lot of time into the work or is it just a once a week assignment?

My TESC classes were all nearly the same in terms of work load. The mentor makes or breaks the level of attention they give to your work. I had one mentor for 2 classes working on his PhD and he was REALLY excited to point out all of my in text citation errors according to MLS vs. the APA style

yeah, that's what I thought.
On the other hand, nearly every other mentor graded my paper like this:
good. 100.
on occasion, I would get this:
nice job. 100
A mid-term (sociology of work) got me the most feedback. After 13 hand-written pages in a furious attempt at answering all of the questions inside the time limit, the sum total of my efforts was:
overall good. watch your spelling. 96.
Ok, so you can draw your own conclusions. I would have gotten a perfect 4.0 if it were not for the hell of my life called biology...but anyway... I did the work, I got the grade. Don't expect to be taught at TESC, just verified. (no worries, you can learn at Harvard with me
In 12 weeks you can expect 6 modules. So for each 2 weeks you will probably have a discussion question(s) and a paper to write based on a reading assignment from a text and possibly a journal article. I always took 6-12 credits, and spent <8 hours per week on my TESC classes. (I took exams and enrolled at another college as well)
