Asynchronous Online (no time slot required) |

A fully online asynchronous course is delivered to learners via the Internet and does not require real-time communications. Asynchronous online courses have no required on-campus components, including assessments. The course will have a set start and finish date and set due dates for assessments (possibly including a scheduled final exam delivered online).
|
|
Synchronous Online (time slot required) |
 |
Schedule: Fully Synchronous | Location: Fully Online | Exam: Fully Online
A fully synchronous online course is delivered through web or video conferencing to facilitate real-time communications between the instructor at one site and students at a site of their choosing. These classes have regularly scheduled meeting times throughout the semester where students are expected to attend.
|
|
Blended - Online Mixed (time slot required) |
 |
Schedule: Both Synchronous and Asynchronous | Exam: Fully Online
A blended online course includes both asynchronous and synchronous elements delivered fully in an online environment. This course has no required on-campus components. The synchronous of the course requires real-time interactions with the course instructor, teaching assistants or lab demonstrators (e.g., attending an online seminar group discussion) for some components and some material is covered asynchronously (e.g., viewing pre-recorded lecture videos).
|
|
Blended - Mixed Location (online and on campus) |
 |
Schedule: Both Synchronous and Asynchronous | Location: Online and On-Campus |Exam: Online or On-Campus
Blended location delivery courses are those courses that include both online and on- campus course components. Typically 50%-80% of the total course delivery occurs on-campus while the online components may be synchronous or asynchronous. (e.g., students watch asynchronous online pre-recorded lectures and attend an on campus synchronous seminar)
|
|

 |
Schedule: Fully Synchronous | Location: Online or On-Campus | Exam: Online or On-Campus
Hyflex courses are offered simultaneously in on-campus and online environment. On-campus registration may be limited.
