Telecourses

Telecourses are instructional programs in which students watch televised programs in addition to reading textbooks and completing assignments. Quizzes and other assignments are returned to the faculty to be graded. An orientation to the telecourse may or may not be required. Additional on-campus meetings may be required, depending upon the instructor.

Video Courses

Video courses are essentially the same as telecourses except that instructional programs are available on videotape rather than on television.

Internet (Online, Web-based) Courses

Internet courses use e-mail to communicate with the instructor and other students. Student's familiarity with e-mail and the world wide web is assumed.

Teleweb Courses

Teleweb courses add Internet activities such as e-mail, group discussions, online quizzes and Internet assignments to the video programming of video/telecourses. Students need access to the Internet and experience with e-mail and the World Wide Web.

Interactive Video Classes

Interactive video classes meet on campus or at other designated locations. Instruction is given by faculty in specially equipped classrooms that allow video and audio interaction among students and the instructor at two or more locations.
