Asynchronous Online Learning: Description and Expectations
The Two-Week Non-Credit courses Applied Neuropsychology and Psychiatry & TikTok Generation are offered fully online in an asynchronous format.
Asynchronous learning is not the same as the remote learning you may have experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic. Students will not be expected to meet in a Zoom classroom every day at a specific time for a live streaming class. In an online asynchronous learning environment, the "classroom" will be the Canvas Learning Management Platform. Students will engage with the faculty, other classmates, and the materials on your own time, while meeting specific deadlines.
Asynchronous learning doesn't mean you are not expected to participate every single day!
Students in the Psychiatry & the TikTok Generation and Applied Neuropsychology will have assignments due each day (i.e., required readings, viewings, discussion board participation, etc). Detailed instructions for completion of these assignments, including relevant resources and links, will be provided daily by faculty through the Canvas Learning Platform. You will receive access to the learning platform shortly before the course begins.Â
Students should expect to dedicate about 2–3 hours per day to engaging with course materials and completing the tasks as assigned by the faculty. Please refer to the specific course for details.Â
Remember, just because you may not be expected to log in at a specific time each day you are still expected to log in daily. Students may also be required to collaborate for group work. The amount of group work will be dependent upon the specific course.
Please refer to the specific course of interest for details on optional live sessions and course expectations.
