Use this page as a guide as you plan for the upcoming semester. The Instruction Modes Table provides further information and key technologies for each mode.
Taught using a combination of in-person learning (same meeting patterns for all enrolled students) with online and/or remote coursework. Hybrid classes are taught simultaneously with some students attending in person and others attending remotely for every class session, with the instructor in the classroom or taught in person at least one in-person class session per week with the other instruction delivered remotely or online, following the same pattern from week to week.
To replace a significant percentage of face-to-face instruction with online activities (OLC 2015).
A combination of synchronous and asynchronous
Courses follow a set schedule, with required on-campus meetings
Designed specifically for web-based delivery and interaction, without requiring access to campus or participation in scheduled activities

Taught in an online delivery mode and delivered asynchronously, which means students can complete the coursework throughout the week when it is convenient for them. There are no scheduled class meetings.
To eliminate geography and time as factors in the relationship between the student, instructor, and the institution (OLC 2015).
