Online synchronous format. Synchronous classes meet
online on the same day and time every week. With this format,
you'll hear live audio from the professor, supported by a
"virtual blackboard". You can also use real-time text messaging
to ask questions or interact with your professor and
classmates.
-
Online asynchronous format. Online asynchronous classes
provide the maximum scheduling flexibility, allowing you to

this format, you'll access recorded audio lectures, video
