6 Online Course Expectations Success in an online course requires a great deal of motivation and self-discipline. Online courses are collegelevel courses with requirements equivalent to and time commitments that may exceed those of face-to-face courses. Students who excel in the online environment are self-motived students with strong reading comprehension and time management skills. Calculate how much your online course(s) will demand: credits X 2.5 to 4 hours per week = hours per week Can you commit this much time? Be honest with yourself. Consider your regular school day, homework, sports, other extracurricular activities, and employment. You must be able to log in at least three to five times each week, complete all assignments on time, and read all course documents provided by the instructor and other students. Working with an Advisor Should I Take an Online Course? Honest self-assessment of learning strengths and styles is critical when deciding to take an online course. If you cannot answer yes to all of the following questions, the online environment may not be a good match for your learning style: Are you motivated to learn? Are you able to overcome procrastination? Do you start and finish projects on time? Do you enjoy discussions with others? Online courses often require participation in discussion forums. Do you continue to work on a problem or task until you complete it? Time Commitment Students are responsible for following TC3 s Academic Calendar for their online courses. They should be aware that online courses normally start before the high school begins and that school breaks may not align. The average student spends 2.5 to 4 hours per week per credit on coursework. For a three-credit course, students should plan on spending at least 7.5 to 12 hours per week on the course. Students who excel in online courses are self-motivated to complete assignments independently and on time. However, while online courses are asynchronous meaning there is no requirement to log on at a specific time online courses are not self-paced. Assignments must be submitted by the date and time specified on the course schedule. The advisor is usually the student s guidance counselor, who assists students in selecting courses of interest or that may fulfill future degree requirements. Using the student s high school performance and knowledge of the student s reading comprehension, writing, and math skills, the advisor assists in placing students in appropriate courses. Working with a Mentor All high school students enrolled in online courses are required to work with a mentor (a guidance counselor or teacher) who review important guidelines and expectations with the student. Mentors also meet routinely with the student to make ensure progress and help troubleshoot any issues that may arise. Reading the Advisor Guidelines and Mentor Guidelines can help students understand the roles of the advisor and mentor and how they will be expected to participate in these important support systems. To read the guidelines, go to collegenow and select on CollegeNow Online. The inside back cover of the catalog contains the Online Success Checklist, which students are expected to follow and refer to in meetings with their mentor. 4 TC3 Online courses taught by faculty at Tompkins Cortland Community College
