◊ Hybrid classes are indicated on the PCC schedule by “CL/WEB” and the footnote indicating how much time outside of class will be necessary for completing assignments.
◊ Like distance learning, CL/WEB uses Internet for some class assignments; e-mail and automated quizzes are examples.
◊ Usually, there is some time in the classroom with an instructor and some independent time to complete work at home or in the computer resource center (CRC).
◊ CL WEB time does not replace other assigned homework or assignments; it replaces additional hours that, in traditional courses, would be in the classroom.
◊ Access to Internet (or time to spend in the CRC), discipline and motivation are necessary to be successful!
Hybrids – not just for cars anymore!What does CL WEB mean?
◊ Registration begins Friday, March 4 – many sections fill up quickly!
