Notes
This course is offered as fully online and asynchronous course, meaning you typically will not have to be online at specific times. You will engage in course-related activities through online tools such as announcements, discussions, and email. Your course learning will be based on weekly module content and activities that you can go through independently. Note: there are still deadlines for assignment submissions, and you may be expected to participate in discussion board interactions with your peers on a regular basis.
Your instructor may also include occasional scheduled sessions for Q&As and other discussion activities, using web conferencing tools such as Zoom and Google Meet. More details will be included in your course outline available on the first day of class.
Classroom/Online option: In addition, the course may be offered as a Hybrid course (Classroom/Online). The Hybrid course has online course content that students move through week by week (asynchronously). In addition, there are three full day Saturday sessions (in-person) with the Instructor on campus at TMU. The dates and times for the in-person classes are listed in the course details.
