Below are the definitions of the delivery methods of your classes:

• Face-to-face: Course meets in-person during designated days and times
• Hybrid: Course meets in-person during designated days and times with remote learning components built in to reduce the amount of in-person days a class will meet
• Online synchronous: Learning that takes place online but happens in real-time with regular course meetings on specific dates and during specific times
• Online asynchronous: Learning takes place remotely through virtual means that do not require normal or regular meetings at the same place or time
• Flex: Course is offered both in person and virtually. Students choose whether to attend face to face or virtually. Faculty determine if virtual learning is offered synchronous and/or asynchronous. Students should check with faculty for more details
