Types of Online Courses
Full Online Courses
Students registered in online courses can access them anytime and anywhere through the internet. Using the Blackboard Learning Course Management System (CMS), students log in to access their courses, interact with their instructors, take tests, write papers, complete assignments and participate in discussions. Online courses have the same quality as on-campus courses and are semester bound (completed within the semester). Online courses are identified with an “S” at the end of the section number (e.g., ART 118-001S).
