Delivery Method Definitions
On Site: Instruction occurs in real time on-campus, or at a site off-campus.
Online: Instruction occurs in a virtual classroom. See each course's attributes for details on whether you will be expected to learn in real time, any time, or in a combined approach.
Online Real Time: Instruction takes place in real time using a virtual classroom.
Online Any Time: Instruction occurs in a virtual classroom, but there is no scheduled class time. Instructor engagement and content is available online for students to access when it best suits their schedule.
Blended: Combines on site instruction with online learning.
HyFlex: Each class session is offered on site, online real time and online any time. Students can choose how they attend each class session.
ZTC (Zero Textbook Cost): Search for sections of courses where there is no cost to access the required course resources. In the Timetable, use the Advanced Search feature and limit the Attribute to "Zero Textbook Cost". ZTC sections will have no cost to access textbooks, ebooks or online homework systems. ZTC sections may still have costs associated with required supplies and technology, like lab safety gear, calculators or computer requirements.
