General Course Activities/How To Plan Your Time
All activities are fully asynchronous—there are no required meeting times. Our format allows flexibility so you can fit the following course learning activities into your schedule:
• Homework/Case Study Assignments
• Quizzes
• Weekly Discussions
• Labs/Lab Reports (for students taking the lab)
• Exams
Most students dedicate 10-15 hours per week to the course; 13-18 if taking Lab (HA&P2-459).
We recommend planning several 1- 2 hour study blocks throughout the week and checking into the course daily once the discussions begin.
