On-line Learning
Technology provides a powerful tool for learners to
acquire new skills and knowledge at their own pace, outside of the boundaries
of the traditional classroom. In particular, computer networks (e.g., the
Internet) are increasingly being used to deliver on-line instruction to
students any time and any place.
To prepare students to
function effectively in an on-line learning environment, students entering
BYU-Idaho in Fall 2000 are required to have one on-line learning
experience to graduate. Approved on-line courses are designated in the class
schedule with section numbers between 801 and 899. These courses can also be
used to fulfill general education, elective, or major course requirements.
On-line courses are to be completed during the regular semester (or term).
Because the student controls the on-line learning experience, a high degree
of self-discipline is needed to be successful.
On-line courses taken
from other institutions or organizations may be approved as meeting this
requirement. Such courses must represent collegiate level subject matter,
have required a level of effort equivalent to at least one semester credit
hour, and have been offered by an accredited college, university, or other
well-known credible learning organization. Requests for using an on-line
course not taken at BYU-Idaho to meet this requirement must be submitted to
the Registrar for approval. Students must provide a record of course
completion such as a transcript, grade report, or completion certificate
which clearly identifies the course and institution.
On-line course
information is available at http://www.byui.edu/insttech/online.htm. A list
of on-line courses is available at
http://www.byui.edu/insttech/OnlineCourses/onlinecalendar.htm (select a
semester or term).
