5.4 Online Participation
Participation guidelines for online courses are posted in each course's syllabus. The faculty expects participation to occur within the provided timelines for all discussions, assignments, and examinations. Timely participation is expected to maximize interaction and collaborative learning in an online environment as outlined in individual course syllabi. Students must notify faculty in advance if they expect they won’t meet participation guidelines. Failure to do so may have adverse effects on the grades received.
