West Houston Institute at Cinco Ranch North Houston Institute University of Houston System at Fort Bend University Center at the Woodlands Various Corporate Sites Because only selected courses and degree programs are delivered to corporate sites, instructors may not have course delivery and students at all of the above sites. In selected courses, instructors may have concurrent UH System enrollments. The key to a successful experience in distance education is preparation. Before each semester, the DE Coordinator for Support Services will contact each distance education instructor and go over the steps in planning a syllabus for your distance education course. Each instructor will receive a series of deadlines for submitting information to the DE Coordinator for Support Services.
Deadlines are early, because planning is critical .
See Faculty Checklist . Any exams, meetings, fields trips, etc., which will be required must be scheduled early in order to publicize the course. Submitted information will be made available on the World Wide Web and may be requested by calling the DE InfoLine. The copy-ready course syllabus is needed early to meet deadlines for materials preparation and to make sure that materials may be printed and distributed to students and others interested in the course. The practical realities of distance education dictate that instructors minimize changes to syllabi and meeting dates after the final syllabus has been submitted and the semester has started.
