Distance Learning

Now that you are admitted, you are welcome to enroll in distance learning courses. Distance Learning (DL) takes place when students and faculty members are separated from each other by location or time. DL courses usually have little or no requirement for "live" meetings--whether in a physical location or across the Internet. However, our blended courses may require face-to-face meetings throughout the semester.

Distance Learning Formats

  • Online - an online course is one that meets completely online via online courseware system (i.e. Blackboard)
  • Blended - a blended course is one that requires some face-to-face meetings with some classes offered via distance education - either via online, videoconferencing or independent study
  • Videoconference - a videoconference course is one that meets via two-way video with the instructor at one site with students and with students at the other site

There are various resources for students who want to learn more about distance learning. Please visit our website at: http://muweb.millersville.edu/~muonline/ for details.
