This class format is unique and requires modification of traditional classroom behavior. Students cannot speak simultaneously with this technology. Once a student becomes comfortable with the environment, it should begin to feel like any other class. When asking a question or responding to a comment, a student should press down on the microphone or ask for recognition from the instructor. Weekly course materials are sent to each site prior to class.
Fax machines are also at each site to ease paper transfers.
The fax machine may be used to return tests to the instructor if he so directs. Telephone communication is available with the instructor during class breaks for personal or confidential issues. Please ask the site facilitator for assistance if you need to use the telephone in the classroom for this purpose. This phone also will be used if the audio or visual system fails.
