Thank you for teaching an online course this quarter. This guide will give you a general understanding of how Online Learning works at CDM.
 
The intention behind the development of CDM's Course OnLine (COL) was to create a capture system for classroom content that could be implemented on a large scale and that would not put an additional burden on the faculty. 
 
All online course sections have access to the COL lecture recordings and materials from a live class taught on campus. The students in this section, also called online students, though they don’t come to class, are usually expected to complete the same requirements on the same schedule as the students in the in-class section. 
 
What does this mean for you? Our intention is that it should mean relatively little. Online Learning instructors have to contend with a few extra e-mails each week and, of course, extra assignments to grade. Many instructors take a more active roll in engaging their online students, which enhances the learning experience for online and in-class students alike.
