Check your Readiness for Online Learning

    Complete the Online Learning Readiness Questionnaire. 

Online Learning Environments

How can you tell which type of online class you are taking?

• Synchronous classes will have a regular meeting time listed.
• Asynchronous classes will have TBA listed under Days & Times.

Be sure to check the syllabus for additional course-specific information.

• Synchronous Learning

  • A learning methodology where students are engaging in learning at the same time that it is taught. For instance, face-to-face video conferencing where students can directly communicate with their teacher.

• Asynchronous Learning

  • An online learning environment where students' learning does not occur at the same time that it is delivered. This approach combines self-study with asynchronous interactions to promote learning.

    
    Online learning resources that can be used to support asynchronous learning include Canvas, online discussion boards, wikis and blogs.

• Hybrid Learning

  • Hybrid instruction takes place both in person and online. This mode is scheduled even if one campus meeting is required.

    For example, a hybrid course might meet twice a week with one day on campus and the other day online.
