What is South Central Online?
South Central College courses and programs offered in an online, web-based format fall under the name South Central Online. South Central College students experienced their first access to totally online courses in Fall 2001 and the college continues to develop courses for a number program areas. Faculty (our subject matter experts) develop course content using an instructional design process that is truly learner-centered. While online learning includes a variety of approaches, typical online coursework will include readings (online or text-based), learning activities, multimedia presentations, online chats/discussions (synchronous & asynchronous), online group collaboration and performance-based assessment. The primary difference between an online course and finding resources while attending a face-to-face class is that your learning is guided to specific areas in a sequence that you may not otherwise identify on your own.
