Make an effort to get to know the people in your class, find people that have the same interests as you in the backcountry. Get their emails or whatever before the class is over so you can ski with them!

Do the reading and the homework they want you to, participate when they ask questions - normal classroom stuff. Make sure you're wearing warm and comfortable clothes when you're outdoors so you can focus on what they're teaching rather than staying warm.

Then, just supplement the material they provide. Get some books like Staying Alive in Avalanche Terrain and Snow Sense, go through some youtube channels [1] [2], there's even an avalanche podcast (Slide) now.

Yep, I recommend the book I started with, Snow Sense. it’s less than $10: Snow Sense: A Guide to Evaluating Snow Avalanche Hazard https://www.amazon.com/dp/061549935X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_D4oeAbKNJJ93Q

After that, I suggest an avalanche prevention / education course.
