Distance Learning

Students in eLearning courses maintain regular contact with their instructors. Guidance is never more than an e-mail or phone call away. eLearning courses are part of GCC's regular course offerings and are fully equivalent to courses taught on campus. Courses may be applied to a GCC degree or certificate, taken as electives, or for general interest or professional development. The faculty for these courses are the same professional experts you meet in our classrooms, and the learning experience is equally rewarding. Students enrolled in eLearning courses have the full range of student and academic services available to them including library resources, academic advising, tutoring, counseling, and the convenience of purchasing textbooks online!

• Online courses These courses are strictly online. While you will not meet with your professor in a classroom setting, there is usually still lab hours available for face-to-face questions. You will participate in the class through the eLearning interface (using discussions, assignments, testing, etc.).
• Hybrid courses These courses alternate between meeting in a classroom and using the eLearning online interface. Some days you will meet in the classroom, and some days you will access the course online.
• Blended (web-Enhanced) courses These classes meet in a classroom and are supplemented with material accessed through the eLearning online interface. Some professors will post extra resources, assignments and/or tests online.
