This program is considered an "online" program because the course content will be delivered online via 麻豆精品视频's learning management system.
While each course is individualized by the course professor, all of the courses will follow a basic format.
- The course will be separated into "modules" or "lessons" that will focus on specific learning objectives.
- With each lesson, students will be asked to read provided materials, review materials, watch videos, and review other resources.
- Most lessons will include some type of graded activity (or assignment) which may include participating in an online discussion, completing an assignment, or taking an online exam.
- The structure of each course will be dependent on the content and instructor.
While most courses in the program will be 100% online, a select few of the courses will require face-to-face meetings due to the content of the course. These face-to-face meetings will be scheduled at flexible times.
