NE State plans varied delivery formats for Fall 2020 semester

Northeast State is updating its Fall 2020 course offerings to reflect changes in delivery formats.

The changes are in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and are designed to create a safe learning environment for students and faculty.

Enrollment for face-to-face courses has been lowered because of social distancing requirements, requiring a shift to hybrid and online formats. Students may check their schedules for format updates starting July 11.

Students with questions about changes to the Fall 2020 schedule should contact their academic advisors or the Advising Resource Center at 423.323.0214 or by email at advising@northeaststate.edu.

In addition to onsite instruction, these formats will be used:

Conventional
Class content is delivered face-to-face in the classroom at the location listed on the days and times relected in the schedule of classes.

Internet
These classes are fully online and do not meet at a specific time. Proctored testing may be required as appropriate for the course.

Hybrid
Half of the class content is delivered face-to-face on a specific day and time. The other half is delivered via online instruction.

Synchronous Zoom
Classes will meet via Zoom on specific days and times.

Synchronous Zoom Hybrid
Classes will meet via Zoom on a specific day and time once per week. The remainder of the content will be delivered via online instruction.

Interactive Television
These courses are taught using two-way interactive audio and video (ITV) instruction. Students at other locations participate in class discussions and activities. A faculty member can instruct from any site, and the students can see and communicate with the instructor and other students. These classes meet on a Northeast State campus on specific days and times.

A computer will be needed to access instruction that is delivered in the online, Zoom, and hybrid formats.

Registration for the fall semester is underway.  Fall classes start Aug. 17.  Students may register at www.northeaststate.edu/apply. For more information, contact Admissions and Records at 423.323.0253 or admissions@NortheastState.edu.
