Distance Education Courses: Each student
works independently with a faculty supervisor and grader to complete
a distance education course. Enrollment is "on demand." Visit the
distance learning section of this site to read more about this option.
Advantage: This format grants schedule
flexibility by allowing the student to begin the course at any time.
Cluster Distance Education Courses: In
this format students join together to complete a distance education
course with occasional interaction (electronically/by phone) with
the faculty. These classes are delivered on CD-ROM/DVD-ROM and contain
both video and PowerPoint for the student to watch and interact
with. Students also interact with their grader and fellow students
through the Distance Education website and the Center for Lifelong
Learning coordinators.
Advantage: This course format allows
for scheduling flexibility with greater interpersonal interaction
than an independent distance learning course.
