For courses that include synchronous class time—whether in person or online—you are expected to be in class at the time scheduled for synchronous learning by your faculty member, barring emergencies. Whether live class time is recorded depends on the mode of the course and your faculty member’s discretion.
In general, here’s what to expect:
On-Campus (P): You are expected to attend class in-person, on campus at the class time and place scheduled. Faculty members are unlikely to record classes.
Flex (FL): Classes are presented synchronously and you choose whether to attend each class session in-person or online. With either choice you are expected to participate in class at the specific time scheduled. Faculty members may record sessions to allow students to review material presented.
Hybrid (HB): Faculty members schedule HB course sessions to alternate between in-person class sessions, which you are expected to attend at the scheduled class time and place on campus, and asynchronous online learning you can access remotely on your own schedule. Faculty are unlikely to record in-person class sessions.
Online Hybrid (OH): Your classes will be entirely online; class time will be a blend of synchronous meetings, which you are expected to participate in at the scheduled time, and asynchronous recorded learning, which you can view at your convenience. Faculty members may record synchronous sessions to allow students to review material presented.
Online Asynchronous (OA): Your classes are entirely online, and presented asynchronously, with optional synchronous activities. All class presentations will be recorded and other content and activities will be conducted online for you to access on your schedule.
Your advisor also can provide more information about class modalities and meeting times.
Please be aware that for any course mode, students are expected to meet participation requirements and deadlines for completing coursework set by the faculty member.
If you experience an emergency that affects your attendance or ability to meet requirements, please contact your faculty member.
