Instructional Methods
Instructional method information can be found in the Meeting Times section of the course search, and in the Class Details section of the Class Details window for individual courses.
Types
In accordance with our community standards for safety, classes may meet in classrooms, studios and laboratories on campus.
This model incorporates in-person experiences (at least once a week) with online components. The exact mix will vary by course but could include staggered class meetings for smaller groups of students. Students registering for a Blended (Hybrid) course must be available (and willing) to come to campus.
Instruction for the course is completed entirely online. There are two types:
- Synchronous: Includes regularly scheduled course meetings and activities at times listed in the course schedule.
- Asynchronous: Regularly scheduled meeting times are not set. Instructors may schedule occasional live meetings via video conferencing software (e.g., Zoom) based on student schedules or requests.
If students are unsure if they are a good candidate for online courses, we encourage them to take our survey:
