Web-enhanced courses are traditional classroom courses whose content is supplemented by a Web site designed by and for the instructor. The instructor places additional information, assignments and special links for students in his or her class to access. The Web enhancement courses are designed for the use by students who are local and enrolled in a traditional campus classroom course. Not all classroom courses have Web enhancements. You will access your class via your Web browser during times that are convenient for you.
Some classes are self-paced.
For those that are not self-paced, there are definite beginning and ending times as well as specific dates that assignments and tests are due. You will do your reading and coursework offline, take tests on and offline, and interact with your instructor and classmates via e-mail, and discussion groups. You may always contact your instructor by telephone and regular mail. Some courses contain multimedia components like sound or video clips or, include CD ROM supplements with the textbook. For these courses you may need a sound card with speakers and a special application that will allow you to view the required material.
