Fall 2011 Online and Hybrid Courses, Middlesex Community College, Middletown, CT 06457

Back to MxCC Distance Learning.

August 29, 2011 to December 17, 2011

After August 15 , upon registering, students may be able to view online course site with orientation, help information, and some course content. Per the professor, course content may not be visible until the first day of class. We encourage you to go through step-by-step instruction and orientation prior to first day. The orientation ensures you to test your computer and learn the basics such as course navigation, discussions (bulletin board), mail, assignments (assignment drop boxes), and assessments (online tests). However, unless instructed by your professor, please do not complete any course-related activities or print any documents before the first day of your course; all course information is considered in progress until the first day of courses.

We will post course overview or a course syllabus for the current semester as soon as we receive the information from the course professor. A majority of our online/hybrid courses run every semester or every other semester. If you would like to know more about an online/hybrid course before registeration, you may go to the online classes page, choose a previous semester, and review the course syllabus.

The course syllabi posted here are for your reference for making a decision on registering an online/hybrid course. The syllabi are subject to change and should NOT be used for completing the online/hybrid courses you have registered. You MUST log on to your online class in Blackboard Vista for accessing course content and participating in your class activities.

Contact MxCC bookstore for textbook information. There are special requirements for some online/hybrid courses. Please read the special requirements closely before registering an online/hybrid course.

For questions on the CONTENT of an online/hybrid class, contact the professor of the class.

Attention: in Fall 2011, ENG 281 Creative Writing and PSY 111 General Psychology (3311 -taught by Yi Guan-Raczkowski) will be using Blackboard Learn, the upgraded system of Blackboard Vista. To access the two courses, you log on to MyCommNet and then click on Blackboard Learn icon at upper right corner. Click here for more information about Blackboard Learn.
