BMCC offers three types of instruction:
In Person
All required class meetings occur on campus, during scheduled class meeting times. All In-Person class meeting days/times are listed in the schedule of classes for students.
Hybrid
In a Hybrid class, online contact hours (Synchronous* or Asynchronous**) displaces some portion of the required contact hours that would normally take place in a scheduled in-person (face-to-face) class. A hybrid class is designed to integrate face-to-face and online activities so that they reinforce, complement, and elaborate one another, instead of treating the online component as an add-on or duplicate of what is taught in the classroom. All In-person and synchronous online class meeting days/times are listed in the schedule of classes for students.
Online
In an Online class (Synchronous* or Asynchronous**), all required contact hours are online. All the class work, examinations, quizzes, writing assignments, lab work, etc. are fully online. All Synchronous class meeting days/times are listed in the schedule of classes for students.
*Synchronous: Synchronous class meetings resemble traditional on-campus In-Person classes in that students must be (virtually) present at the same time. Though they are conducted virtually, synchronous classes meet in real-time. Students must commit to scheduled class times and sign onto their virtual learning platform on schedule.
**Asynchronous: Asynchronous class meetings do not require students to log in to their virtual classroom at a specified time. Students do not have to follow a strict schedule to engage in live classes or discussions, and the only requirement regarding when they turn in their work is the assignment deadline, not an arbitrary timeline.
