在线课程何时开始/结束?

CCC’s online courses follow the same schedule as on-campus classes for beginning and end dates. Some instructors may require all work to be handed in prior to the end date of the course. This gives them time to grade work and give any feedback to their students before the course is shut off.

在线课程在CCC是如何运作的?

Online courses at CCC work as they do at most colleges and universities and are accessed through the internet. 一旦学生注册了一门课程, they are given a username and password that allows them to access the WebCentral Portal where their courses are listed. At CCC, we use Canvas as the course management system to facilitate our online courses. 学生没有在电脑上安装Canvas.

如果我没有注册在线课程呢?

所有提供的课程都有在线展示. Some may be gradebook only courses that contain the gradebook, 教学大纲, 课程公告和出勤工具. Others may contain quizzes, assignments and informational sheets. It depends on the type of class in which the student enrolls. 如果你不确定以哪种模式注册, please contact your advisor or the Registrar’s Office.

模式提供了:

  • 在线Instructor-paced: 你必须在课上规定的期限内完成.
  • 在线自学: You can work at your own pace to have the course completed by the end of the term.
  • 混合: You complete the majority of work online but you may have to come to a campus or center for one or more meetings or to take a proctored test. You are responsible for securing the service of a proctor.
  • 校内讲座课程: These are traditional face-to-face courses, but you may use Canvas for course work.
Do I Need to Come to the CCC Campus to Complete Work for an Online Course?

Most online courses don’t require you to come to campus. 有些课程被认为是“混合课程”," which means sometime during the semester you will be required to physically be at a pre-determined location. That location could be a main campus to do hands-on work or a learning center to take proctored exams.

典型的在线课程是什么样的?

Online courses are normally broken down into topics to lead you through your assigned work. These assignments may include reading chapter information, 回答论坛问题, 下载/上传作业, 做测验和看视频.

How do Online Courses Compare to Face-to-Face Courses?

Online courses have the same academic rigor as a face-to-face courses and are held to the same academic standards.

The content will be similar if not identical and include assignments, 演讲, 讨论, 项目和测试. The course materials will often be reworked for online delivery, but the content remains the same. College transcripts make no distinction whether a particular course was completed online or face-to-face. 

The difficulty level of the course work is intended to be the same. 做实现, 虽然, that you do not have the "imposed discipline" that accompanies a face-to-face course that meets at a specific time in a specific place. Al虽然 most online courses follow a schedule and have a due date, an extra measure of self-discipline is required to be successful.

任务期限是一成不变的吗?

Assignment deadlines exist for a good reason; however, 就像面对面的课程一样, things come up that may prevent you from completing an assignment on time. 如果你发现自己处于这种情况, 一般来说,请与您的指导老师联系, instructors are very understanding if you explain the situation, but It is up to them whether to grant additional time to get work in and if it will affect your grade.

我需要什么类型的计算机硬件/软件?

It is the student’s responsibility to ensure they have a computer system that meets or exceeds the minimum hardware and software specifications to participate in an online course. Note that the minimum specifications may result in slow access speeds and lead to some frustration.

Do I have to be Online at a Certain Time Every Day?

CCC online courses are offered in an asynchronous format, which means students and instructors do not have to access their course at a specific time each day but rather work at the times most convenient to them. 学生 have 24-hour access to their online course and are encouraged to log in daily to see if any new announcements have been posted by the instructor or fellow classmates. 在大多数在线课程中, it is extremely important that students participate in the course several times per week. Specific requirements for participation will be laid out by your instructor.

时间管理有用提示

  • 制定并保持一致的学习计划.
  • Make sure to note all due dates for each class for which you are registered.
  • Plan on submitting assignments and quizzes earlier than the date and time indicated. This gives you time to troubleshoot any issues you may have with the technology before the deadline.

Many online courses use the same textbook as in the face-to-face version of the course. To find the needed textbooks, go to WebCentral and choose the My Services Tab. 在搜索类/注册菜单中, 点击我的课程表, 输入所需的期限, 然后提交. Choose a class in your schedule list and submit again.
