Online Degree FAQs:
Are online degrees as good as a degree that I can earn in a classroom?
TU’s degree programs — online and classroom-based — are accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. At TU, “online” refers only to the format of the courses, and your degree will be the same whether you take courses in a classroom, online, or a combination of both. Many educators believe that online study results in a more comprehensive understanding of the course material.
Are online classes more difficult than classroom-based courses?
No, an online class will cover the same course material as an in-seat class. Online classes are designed for people who prefer the web learning environment and find it more convenient to take classes online.
How is an online course set up?
Online classes blend the latest eLearning technology with the latest educational theory and practice. Students attend classes online, do research using the Internet, exchange emails, and participate in online discussions. Even assignments and tests are submitted online. Weekly assignments are required, but the course design generally allows participants to complete coursework at the times and places that work best for them before scheduled deadlines.
Will I be able to access my courses on my smartphone?
Yes, Brightspace has a mobile app called Pulse that allows students to check updates, watch video, or receive notifications on their smartphones, making distance learning extremely convenient.
