How Online Courses Work
The
instructor will guide you through each lesson and will be available to
answer questions and provide feedback on your assignments. Each week you
will receive an assignment over the Internet. The assignment will
include:
-
Reading a chapter in your textbook (mailed to you prior to the start
of a 10 or 16 week course) or online course material (for shorter
courses). The textbook cost is included in the tuition.
-
Completing a short assignment and either forwarding the assignment
electronically to your instructor or posting it on the electronic
class Discussion Board.
-
Taking a self-check quiz.
In
addition, you also will have some assignment where you will collaborate
with other students using electronic discussion boards, chat rooms and
e-mail. Students do not necessarily have to be online at a specific
time each week; however, assignments must be completed on a timely
basis.
Examinations
The
semester length course (10-16 weeks) will have mid-term and final
examinations. The 5 and 8 week courses have a final examination only.
Your overall grade for the class will be based on your performance on
the weekly assignments and examinations.
