students can learn in the traditional classroom setting at the

-
Online synchronous format. Synchronous classes meet
online on the same day and time every week. With this format,
you'll hear live audio from the professor, supported by a
"virtual blackboard". You can also use real-time text messaging
to ask questions or interact with your professor and
classmates.
-
Online asynchronous format. Online asynchronous classes
provide the maximum scheduling flexibility, allowing you to
attend class any time, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. With
this format, you'll access recorded audio lectures, video
presentations, and other instructional materials via the
Internet. You'll also participate in online discussions via
chat, which permit more interaction among classmates and the
professor.
