What is eLearning at GHC?
Discover the world of eLearning at Georgia Highlands College. GHC eLearning provides you the opportunity to complete many of the first two years or "core" curriculum courses in an online, hybrid, or DVD environment. eLearning provides you with the opportunity for increased flexibility and convenience in course scheduling.
Three Delivery Options are Available:
GHC Online (WEB Based)
Online courses offer students a great deal of flexibility in scheduling as well as access to information and communication resources not found in the traditional classroom. Classes allow students to view the syllabus, policies, assignments, lecture notes, multimedia presentations, and interactive tutorials. Most of the communication with the professor and other students is via e-mail, electronic discussion forums and blogs. Typically,at least 95% of the course content and contact with students is online. Most courses require that students attend a mandatory (required) orientation and at least one proctored exam or assignment that will require you to come on campus. These are not self-paced course as there are due date requirements for assignments.
GHC Hybrid
Hybrid courses combine traditional classroom instruction with an electronic component. Classes meet on an abbreviated or limited schedule throughout the semester with the remaining course materials being delivered via distance. Classroom attendance is required on the assigned days. Additional information about specific classes can be found at the websites provided with the specific course. Detailed class information can be found at the website or email address provided with each hybrid course listing.
GHC College by DVD
College by DVD provides students with a series of DVD’s that contain course lectures and materials needed to complete the course. Courses, which are produced on campus with Georgia Highland’s faculty, are accompanied by traditional text, handouts, and online supplements. Periodically during the semester students will meet with the instructor on campus for tests, labs, etc.
