Online courses deliver education using the Internet for self-motivated students who wish to learn in their own environments, rather than on campus, using a computer to connect with the instructor and other course participants. Although these classes have a specific schedule, and have specific start and end dates, they do not require participants to meet on campus. They may require supervised or proctored exams, labs, and activities, depending on the subject matter and instructor’s design. Online courses are demanding; students must manage time well and be self motivated to be successful.
Hybrid courses at Madison College combine the best of traditional face-to-face teaching with innovative online learning methods. Students will be expected to attend scheduled face-to-face class sessions, but the number and/or length of the classroom time will vary depending on the nature of the course and the instructor. As little as 1/3 or as much as 3/4 of the traditional classroom instruction will be replaced with the online instructional methods. The online instruction component will promote student engagement through enhanced interaction with course material.
