Frequently Asked Questions about Distance Education at ECCWhat is Distance Education? Can anyone take these classes?Distance Education courses are designed for students who desire flexibility and convenience intheir studies. Our courses are fully accredited and are considered equivalent to on-campuscourses. Anyone who is eligible to take regular courses on campus may enroll in DistanceEducation courses. Consult the ECC Schedule of Classes or the college website for registrationinformation.How do these courses work? How will I interact with my instructor?Students in online courses communicate with their instructor and classmates electronically viaa course website. The instructor posts such things as lectures, assignments, announcements,and other information to the site. The class may respond with questions, comments, etc. Someof our instructors are using a website for their course; others are using course managementprograms such as ETUDES-NG, Blackboard, and others.Will I be required to attend class meetings on campus?This is determined by the instructor. Many instructors have on-campus meetings at the start ofthe semester, but some do not. If you are taking a course that has a scheduled first classmeeting, your instructor will give you a course syllabus at that time. Instructors teachingentirely online will provide you with a syllabus online. The syllabus will include the courserequirements and information about any on-campus sessions you will be expected to attend.If my instructor holds a first class meeting, and plans to hold additional on-campus meetingslater in the semester, will they be on the same day and at the same time as the first classmeeting?Usually, yes. We encourage our instructors to schedule all class meetings on the same day andat the same time as the first meeting. Check with your course instructor for that information.The first class meeting conflicts with another course I want to take. What should I do?Do not enroll in both courses – choose only one.How are examinations administered?Again, this is determined by the course instructor. Some instructors administer exams at oncampus meetings, while others administer them online. Your instructor will provide you withdetails.What software and hardware do I need?You must have at a minimum:- Regular access to the Internet- A Computer – either a PC with Windows and a Pentium processor or a Macintosh with atleast System 10.0- A recent version of a web browser such as FireFox or Microsoft Explorer- An Internet Service Provider- An Email Address8

- Current Word Processing Software as required by the instructorSome courses may have additional requirements. Your instructor will give you moreinformation.I don’t have a computer at home. Can I still take an online course?Yes, as long as you’re sure you’ll have regular access to a computer that’s connected to theInternet. Some of our students use computers they have at work. There are also computerlabs on campus with Internet access. (Like the Computer Commons in the Library MediaTechnology Center, for example – more details later.)What kind of computer skills should I have?In order to succeed in this type of course, you must be computer literate and have experiencein computer communication. That is, you should have good word processing skills, and befamiliar with sending and receiving email. You should also feel comfortable navigating theWorld Wide Web. It is very important that you have these skills before enrolling in an onlinecourse, because it will take some time for you to become accustomed to the way an onlinecourse works. Before you know it, you will need to concentrate on the course material, andyou won’t have much time to deal with technical matters. Check the “Skills You’ll Need”section later in this Handbook. It will help you determine whether or not you’re ready for anonline course.I think I have the technical skills I need, but I’ve never taken a course like this. How do I knowif this is right for me?In order to succeed in a Distance Education course, you must be self-motivated and be able towork well independently with minimum supervision. You do not meet regularly with yourinstructor in the classroom, so you must be able to manage your time effectively and stay ontrack with your coursework. It’s also important that you have strong reading and writing skills.(See the “Tips for Success” section later in this Handbook.)Distance Education courses are every bit as challenging as on-campus courses. In fact, surveyswe’ve conducted reveal that some students find Distance Education courses more difficult.Will I have to be online at a particular time?Some instructors require students to be online at a particular time to take quizzes or exams, orto participate in chat sessions. You may contact your instructor for details.What do I do if I need help?It’s very important that you get in touch with your instructor as soon as possible if you’re havingtrouble. You may contact them by phone or by email. Our full-time instructors hold weeklyoffice hours, so you can visit them in person, if you wish. A Faculty Directory is available at ouroffice and on our website.If you find you need help with the course material, check out the Tutoring Programadministered by the ECC Learning Resources Center (LRC). Tutors help students prepare fortests, learn new concepts, improve study techniques, and answer questions about assignments.9

Free tutoring for ECC students is available each semester. All LRC tutors are highly trained andcertified. Visit the Tutoring website for more toring/index.aspWhat do I do if I can’t access my course online?If for some reason you cannot access your course, email or call your instructor or the DistanceEducation Office. We will get in touch with our Information Technology Services departmentand find out what the problem is. In the future we hope to have a “Technical Help Number”students can call, but until that time, we will contact ITS on your behalf.Will I have to buy books for the course?Yes. Your instructor will give you information about the text materials you’ll need for yourcourse. They are available in the El Camino College Bookstore. The El Camino CollegeBookstore is now open 24/7. They can ship your books to your home or you can pick them upin the store. Visit the online at http://elcamino.collegestoreonline.com/.Does Distance Education courses transfer to other schools?We advise you to check with a counselor at the school you plan to transfer to so you are surethe course will be accepted. Many schools accept our courses, but some do not. (By the way,your transcript will not specify that the course you took was delivered in a Distance Educationformat.)What if I find I can’t continue in my course? Can I withdraw from it?Yes, but in order to receive a “W” (Withdrawal), you must withdraw before the deadline.Consult the current ECC Schedule of Classes or visit the
