When classes cannot be held face-to-face, the college president may direct faculty to use remote instructional methodologies in order to continue instruction. Remote instruction represents a temporary shift of instruction from meeting face to face to using technology tools such as email, discussion boards, video classes/conferences.
- Online: Offered completely asynchronously (no in person or virtual live instruction). Students log in to Blackboard to review course content and assignments. There are no scheduled meeting times, work is completed based on course deadlines as set by the professor. These courses use online tools that include but are not limited to discussion boards, assignments, testing, web links, videos, group work, journals, etc.
- Blended: Combines a weekly In-Person class and online course work.
