Online Learning at Southeast
Online learning is a flexible alternative to face-to-face
classes. Assignments, classmate/instructor interactions, and course materials
are made available to you online.
Two Types
There are two types of distance learning courses: fully
online and hybrid.
Fully Online
Courses
- All
course requirements can be completed online
- There are no on-campus meetings (except for
perhaps one meeting at the beginning of the course)
- May require proctored tests in a secured environment
Hybrid Courses
- Majority
of the course requirements can be completed online
- Courses may require on-campus meetings or labs
Brightspace by Desire 2 Learn (D2L)
All online courses use the D2L Brightspace online platform. D2L Brightspace gives you access to all your online
resources for your class, as well as interactions with your classmates and
instructor.
If you are taking an online class, we highly encourage you to learn more about D2L Brightspace and try it yourself!
Online Isn't Necessarily Easier
Some people mistakenly believe online learning is easier.
Certainly the flexibility of online learning makes it easier to work into your
daily life. But it can be much more work
if you aren't prepared and well organized.
You can find out what it will take to learn on line by
visiting the Distance Learning Tool. This interactive website will give you an
idea of what it takes to learn online.
