Welcome!

Digitial Education at SCC (DE) offers learning opportunities outside the classroom, usually from home or a conveniently located off-campus site. DE allows students to earn college credits with fewer on-campus hours. Our DE courses are designed to fit your busy schedule and advance your academic goals with a challenging educational experience. SCC is committed to giving our DE students the same individual support, academic standards and experienced faculty found in our classrooms - plus the freedom to choose your learning mode. Digital Education Options: Online - Courses are offered via the Internet, using web-based software - either Desire2Learn D2L or Blackboard. Online instructors use a variety of teaching approaches and assignments just as they do in face-to-face classes. Classes are asynchronous, meaning there are no regular meeting times. (Note: Some courses require in-person orientation and in-person exams. Varies by course, check with instructor.) Sample Syllabus Click here for a list of Online courses approved to satisfy AA/AS degree requirements. On-Campus / Online Hybrid- The perfect blend of in-person and online instruction. Hybrid classes typically have half of the course taught in the classroom and half of the course work completed online using Desire2Learn or Blackboard. Portions taught in person versus online vary by course. Check the schedule of classes for more information on meeting days and times.

Listen or download ITV/Web-stream Audio Interactive TV / Web Stream- Classes are broadcast live from our television studio/classroom, and archived online for later viewing from the web. This option allows students to attend the class on campus, view the class from off-campus through Comcast or SureWest cable television, or access archived video streams of the course. (We recommend students test their streaming internet connection before enrolling if you plan to view the course using this method.)

Televised / Video Rental Courses - A series of pre-recorded television programs broadcast over local cable television, viewed from home, by video at the Instructional Media counter, or by rental DVDs.
