The college seeks to provide learning opportunities for students without the restrictions of time and place. The college offers internet courses, hybrid courses, blended, and hyflex courses.
Internet Courses. These classes are delivered over the internet using devices such as a desktop computer, laptop computer, or other computing device. These courses may have proctored testing, but instruction is delivered online. In order to take an internet course at SCC, students are required to have a personal computer at home or access to a computer elsewhere. (The SCC Library has internet/computer stations that may be used by students.)
In order to sign up for these courses, students must know (at a minimum) how to use the internet, how to use Microsoft Word, and how to save a file to portable media or cloud storage such as OneDrive. They must be able to send an email message with a document attached. In addition, students registering for specific courses may be required to have additional hardware and/or software as specified in the course syllabus at the time of enrollment. If students enter internet courses without the minimum computer skills, hardware, or software, they may be dropped from those courses.
Students enrolling in an internet course must complete a required Enrollment Key Quiz (EKQ). This quiz can be completed online by accessing the course in Rams Online. Completion of the EKQ represents the student’s first day of attendance in the course. Students not completing this quiz before the stated deadline will be reported as “never attending” the course.
