| Course Modality and Registration Code | Class Location | Description | This is a good choice for… |
|---|---|---|---|
| On-Campus (P) | In person on campus | Students attend class on campus. On demand, pre-recorded content that complements in-person learning may be posted on D2L. | Students who enjoy in-person learning with peers and their faculty member in the same classroom. |
| Flex (FL) | In person on campus OR online (synchronous) | For each class session, students decide whether to attend class on campus or access classes live remotely via Zoom. The faculty member teaches from a technologically enhanced on-campus classroom with tools to engage both in-person and remote learners. | Students who enjoy learning in the classroom, but want the flexibility to connect online when work, family responsibilities or travel prevents them from coming to campus. |
| On-Campus Hybrid (HB) | In person on campus AND online (asynchronous) | Course sessions alternate between online prerecorded content that students access on-demand and live in-person classroom learning. | Students who want a blend of on-campus and online learning. |
| Online Hybrid (OH) | Online (synchronous and asynchronous) | This entirely online course modality blends on-demand online learning and live remote class sessions | Students who enjoy online learning but want regular live interaction with faculty and peers |
| Online Asynchronous (OA) | Online (asynchronous) | This popular all-online option provides students the most flexibility for when and where to learn. All class content is prerecorded, with optional live online activities. | Students who enjoy online learning and want the flexibility to fit study around their schedules, particularly if work, family and/or travel commitments are demanding. |
DePaul University has several modalities that define how a course is taught. These course modalities are described on the Teaching Commons website.These modalities are explained from a student perspective in a video here.
Generally, the College of Business will offer courses in five of these defined modalities.
