Each course must be coded for type of instruction. A course cannot have two types of instruction unless a different time or day is indicated (on a separate line) for each type of instruction.
Following are the codes to be used:
Code | Type of Instruction | Clarification |
---|---|---|
1 | Lecture | Can be associated with large or small groups. The purpose of the meeting is to have new material presented by the instructor. |
2 | Seminar | Associated with relatively small groups of students. Students are likely to be required to prepare and present the material during the meetings. |
4 | Laboratory | Laboratory describes instruction where a group of individuals under supervision are presented with new material in a setting with facilities, instruments or equipment specific to the purpose of the meeting. |
5 | Tutorial | Individual student activity with periodic individual supervision. For example, directed study, independent study, thesis courses, science research, and student teaching. |
8 | Studio | Studio describes instruction where outside preparation by the student is expected and where equipment/facilities specific to the instruction is often required. |
9 | Distance Learning | This type describes an online class that takes place off campus via the internet. |
10 | Internship | Internship describes instruction in a mentored setting where students have an opportunity to apply the theoretical knowledge they have acquired in a field directly related to the program of study. |
11 | Practicum | Practicum describes instruction in a supervised clinical/medical, social work, or school (student teaching) setting where students have an opportunity to apply the theoretical knowledge they have acquired. |
