Online Asynchronous: Asynchronous (online) courses are taught fully online with course content, activities and interactions occurring entirely online. This delivery method does not require students to be online at specific dates/times, and students may participate in class activities and complete course assignments asynchronously. Online asynchronous courses may require proctored events, which must be detailed in the course catalog. 

Online Synchronous: Synchronous (Live Online) courses are completely online, but require weekly meeting times that are designated on the course schedule when you register. These course meetings will be held online via Blackboard Collaborate, and students can participate in these meetings from anywhere (you are not required to be on campus). This delivery method requires students to be online at specific dates/times during the term. Online synchronous courses may require proctored events, which must be detailed in the course catalog.
