Interactive Distance Learning (Fully Online or Hybrid) is a way of taking courses online, delivered on-demand with weekly participation requirements.
What the catalog says
The catalog states: “Of equal importance to the student’s success is the availability of time to participate in online classes, and additional time to complete classroom projects or homework as assigned.”
The catalog states: “Students are required to log in and participate in forums, submit assignments, and/or take quizzes in any given week.”
Additionally, students will spend a significant time offline reading and studying. The student must manage their time carefully in order to succeed.
Cell phone apps may not facilitate all required participation and cannot be relied upon for completing assignments. In addition, prior computer experience, including word processing knowledge, is helpful for success.
