Frequently Asked Questions
How does it work?
Instead of attending lectures on campus, online students use the web site, textbooks, and lab activities to learn. Students are responsible for logging into Canvas and completing all class activities, usually within the week. The class will be utilizing Canvas to deliver and communicate all course material.
You mean I don't have to come to class?
You may be required to attend in-person proctored exams. Please read the notes carefully when registering for the class. Otherwise, all coursework will be completed online and there are no on-campus or Zoom requirements for class meetings.
So what do I need to be an online student?
Here's what you need to be able to succeed in the on-line section:
- Access to a computer with the course software installed.
- Internet access (Web and e-mail).
- Ability and willingness to work independently.
- Solid experience with Internet and with Windows.
- Can you troubleshoot problems?
Can you browse the web and send an e-mail attachment?
- It REALLY helps to like reading and writing.
- You'll need to participate in the course communication.
- Check e-mail regularly -- daily is best.
Do you have any tips for online students?
- Keep up with the class. The biggest problem online students have is gradually falling behind. You may lose points when assignments are late, and you may be dropped from the class if you get more than 5 assignments behind.
- Schedule at least 12 hours per week for a 4 unit class. Remember, in a regular class you would be driving, parking, attending class, and doing homework. Don't think that that you don't need to make time for class just because you're not on campus.
- Work with a small group either in-person or through Canvas discussion boards and assignments.
- Contact your instructor as soon as you begin to have problems or if you decide to drop.
- E-mail and discussion can be brief and casual.
