expected to post information about their
available weekly hours within the online
course shell, including information to inform
the students of the various modes in which the
instructor is available to students who need to
contact the instructor from a distance.

through the college’s curriculum
approval process and per the faculty
collective bargaining agreement.
52. Example #1 – for students

attend courses on a regular basis. In
the online learning system,
“attendance” is determined by student
engagement with the classroom tools,
with other students, and with the
instructor.

Failure for Non-Attendance policy and
