The instructional method for all class sections must match the method indicated in the class schedule to satisfy university and regulatory requirements.
Traditional Instructional Method
- Classes must be conducted in person at a designated campus location.
- In circumstances in which a faculty member is unable to teach a class session in person, the faculty member may teach a class online, but total online instructional time may not exceed 10% of required instructional time during the semester.
- Students are ordinarily expected to attend classes in person. Additional online class meetings may be available to a student with a Disability Access Services accommodation.
Hybrid Instructional Method
- The majority of class hours (minutes) must be conducted in person at a designated campus location; however, some classes are held online (asynchronous and/or synchronous).
- When a faculty member is unable to teach an in-person class in person, classes must be rescheduled in person.
- Additional online class meetings may be available to a student with a DAS accommodation.
Live Cast Instructional Method
- Classes must be conducted in person at a designated campus location; students enrolled in this method are receiving in-class instruction synchronously with an instructional assistant physically present in their campus location.
- When a faculty member is unable to teach a class session, classes must be replaced by another in-person meeting.
- Online class meetings for sections taught in this instructional method may be available to a student with a DAS accommodation.
Online Instructional Method
- Classes must be conducted online (asynchronously or synchronously).
Colleges may have more restrictive policies on class section instructional methods.
Students who are unable to attend classes in person for extended periods should be advised to consider a leave of absence.
