Synchronous learning in online education has been demonstrated to increase student outcomes, sense of community, and overall student satisfaction with online learning. This may be meeting with your whole class and the instructor, meeting individually with your instructor, meeting with a group of students, or meeting with one other student in order to complete required course expectations.
This means that you will use meeting software such as Zoom, Skype, Google Hangout, and/or other platforms to communicate and meet with your class and instructor at a specified time. Synchronous activities are activities that occur with others at a scheduled time but that are accessible to you online.Asynchronous activities are activities, readings, assignments, videos, and other tasks required in your course that you do on your own time while meeting the expected due dates and times.When you are in a hybrid course, please see course notes to check the requirements for your hybrid course.įully online delivery means you will be taking your courses in an online format which may include both synchronous and asynchronous activities.
