assignments emailed to me on a weekly basis?

necessarily. Instructor

students to provide up-dated information concerning assignments and the

Will we ever have to meet
with the instructor and/or class?

All communication is done via email or telephone; no class time is
necessary. However, your instructor welcomes the opportunity to meet
students in person. Students may stop by instructor's office during
office hours if you want to meet with the instructor in person.
Is it necessary to own software covered and used in the
course?
No. However, students MUST have access to
the Internet via an Internet Service Provider such as AOL, Cox, or Qwest. Students
can access free Internet at MCC's Multi-Use lab on campus or the college library to
complete their assignments. Also, students must subscribe to MCC's free email to be
able to access your course homepage.

DURING THE SEMESTER
What if I am out of town and have no
Internet access?
Assignments and due dates are made known
from the beginning of the class. Therefore, if you are going out of town, you can do
them before leaving. Or, in some cases, you can receive advanced permission from instructor to submit them
later upon your return. Also, if you have access to computer and the Internet, you
can do most of your assignments while out of town. Be sure to contact
your instructor for
information on how to access your class on line or to use MCC email while out of town.
Can I turn assignments in early?
Yes. You can turn assignments in
earlier than the due date once they are completed. However, you cannot go on to
another section or project until you have completed the previous one entirely. This
class is not an open entry/open exit self-paced type of class, it is a
structured class that happens to be online via the Internet. Assignments
must be turned in weekly on the due date specified by your instructor
(usually Sunday at 11 p.m. Arizona time).
Do I get any updates from the instructor
about how I am doing in the course?
All
grades are posted on the Homepage as soon as they are completed.
What happens when assignments are turned in
late?
Assignments can be turned in late with
prior permission from the instructor. However, points will be deducted for late
submission. Be sure to check your instructor's late
assignments policy and follow this policy so that
you will receive points for your assignments.
Do Internet class credits count the same as
on-campus credits?
Yes. Whether taken online or in a
classroom, the course will still cover the same material and therefore counts the same
toward credits.
