Delivery Method:

ITEC 425:

Flexible Study (FS). In this course delivery model, students work independently at their pace. Students progress through learning resources that are acquired from external sources or developed internally following principles of instructional design. They can post questions to an online conference monitored by an instructor, and access to sample exams and diagnostic quizzes. Some courses, using this model, offer an optional Open Lab where students can receive additional learning support. Assessment is by examination and assignments.

ITEC 426, 427:

Mixed Collaborative (MC). In this course delivery model, collaborative students engage in face-to-face (F2F) class one week and asynchronous conferencing the next week. In a typical week students work through content within a web presentation, then depending on the cycle, either participate in structured face-to-face or online collaborative learning activities facilitated by learning staff. Cooperative learning activities may be designed for completion within the class session, or they may extend for a week or longer using online team conferences. Asynchronous conferencing may be employed for team conferences, section conferences and the Q&A board. Optional resources may include a textbook, web links, or CD-ROMs. Some courses, using this model, offer an optional Open Lab where students can receive additional learning support. Assessment is based on assignments, individual and group projects, and participation in online discussions.
