On-line

On-line, or web-based, teaching is not in real-time.  Students and faculty interact with each other as members of a class, over the Internet using web pages, discussion groups and e-mail.  UW Colleges on-line course never meet at a particular time or place, although they are structured within an academic semester time frame.  For more information, visit online.uwc.edu.
