Telecourses Telecourses are developed by educators and media specialists, in fields including business, computers, history, general science, and teacher recertification. Each course includes weekly video lessons on KCWC-TV, required reading and writing assignments, and periodic examinations. Seminars, discussions and assignments may also be a part of specific classes. For the student s convenience, broadcasts are repeated two to three different times a week Local students may check out videotapes of the televised programs from the library for overnight or in-house use, provided they have a CWC library card.
Videotapes are also available in the outreach centers.
Students should contact the Telecourse Office when they are unable to receive telecourses via antenna or cable. Spanish Theater University Studies Videotape courses are taped from actual classroom lectures, then are sent to each CWC outreach center where students meet for viewing and discussion. Distance learning courses meet the needs of students who are site-bound and who do not otherwise have access to learning opportunities in higher education. These courses are not a shortcut to easy credit. The courses have the same or similar content and requirements as courses offered on campus but the delivery method is different.
