So, what it's like to be an online student? Here's a few common questions about what it's like to study online.
A wide variety of learning activities are used, in order to give students numerous ways and opportunities to demonstrate their learning, and the types of activities do vary from program to program.
All of our online programs have papers and projects, just like those found in classroom programs, but there are also virtual tours, video presentations and case studies, interactive CD-ROM or Web-based activities, simulations, and similar learning activities that are particularly well-suited to the online environment and adult learners.
There is no prescribed date and time for class sessions. Each class session or "workshop" lasts seven days.
Students log in throughout those seven days to view their assignments, participate in discussions and team activities, and submit their assignments.
The key advantage to online learning is the flexibility and convenience of participating in class when it best suits your schedule.
Online Campus Library Services (OCLS) is available to help you with research, identifying what materials are available and obtaining them for you. Assistance is available at 800-521-1848 or ocls@indwes.edu.
Some of our regional Education Centers also have local library materials and librarian assistance.
Lectures, in the traditional sense, are not a significant part of IWU's online learning programs.
Our faculty members participate in the class discussions and provide their insights in interactive fashion rather than a sit-and-listen lecture.
There is also a Facilitator's Forum that affords our faculty a venue in which to expand upon or explain textbook concepts. Other supplements, such as CD-ROMs and virtual tours, are also frequently used to supplement the textbooks.
Under emergency circumstances, a student may be allowed:
