Instructional Modalities

Online Learning and Instructional Technologies supports the following modalities offered by Heartland Community College: 

In-Person: Traditional campus-based face-to-face instruction. Only 0-25% of the instruction may be offered online.

Hybrid: 26-75% of the instruction is provided through asynchronous online or synchronous live video instruction. The remainder of the instruction is provided through traditional face-to-face instruction. Regular on-campus meetings are required.

Online: 100% of instruction is provided entirely through asynchronous online education in which the student is not bound by place or time. No on-campus meetings are required. Any synchronous live video course activities should be options and/or recording for later viewing with no additional penalties or hardships for the student (eg., having to write a paper to "make up" for missing a live video lecture).
