? HYBRID
ONLINE
In an online course, instruction, learning activities, and interactions
between faculty and students take place online on a dedicated
course website.
Taking an online course has many advantages, including increased
flexibility in completing homework assignments, the ability to
communicate with your classmates and your instructor from
the convenience of your own home or workplace, and enhanced
access to written materials ranging from discipline-specific
internet resources to discussions and instructors' announcements.
However, an online course is not for everyone. For instance, if you
need the discipline of meeting on campus several times a week and
you enjoy the in-person interaction with other students and your
instructor, you are more likely to succeed in a regular classroom
or hybrid course format.
Many online courses may require you to take proctored exams.
ese exams can be taken onsite at the HCC Test Center, at an
approved alternative location or via a virtual proctoring service.
A basic understanding of the internet and web browsing are
required. Online course activities may be completed at any
location with a computer and internet connection. When online
course registration is complete, you may log on to your password-
protected course website beginning on the first day of the term. For
complete technical requirements, visit howardcc.edu/elearning.
A hybrid course is conducted using a combination of campus
and online instruction. It is an ideal combination of classroom
interaction with the use of online resources. Because so many of
the course interactions are conducted online, the amount of class
meeting time is a percentage of the traditional onsite version of
the course.
For online course interaction, a basic understanding of the internet
and web browsing are required. Online activities may be completed
at any location with a computer and internet connection. For
