In The Virtual College:
The Internet, television, computers, and independent study open alternate pathways to college. If you are highly motivated and enjoy working independently, virtual learning empowers you to decide when and where learning fits into your busy schedule. However, virtual learning may not be for you if you need structure, "real time" human interaction, or easy results without hard work. These courses take a great deal of time.
- Students access courses through the college website
- Professors and students interact through email, in real time, through chat and discussion forums in a user-friendly "virtual" classroom environment
- Though students can access courses from any Internet connected computer, to gain the benefit of an "anytime, anyplace" learning environment, students should have their own computers. Some courses require orientation and/or testing on campus.
- Television courses also offer time flexibility. Students view video segments on cable TV at scheduled times, on video in the MCCC library, or by videotape rental. TVC students may borrow tapes overnight from the college library.
- Through The Virtual College, most courses for completing the Humanities and Social Sciences (A.A.) or General Business (A.A.S.), are available from distance learning.
- Courses taught at a distance through The Virtual College are equivalent to on-campus courses and are taught by MCCC faculty members.
