Virtual Classrooms
The University of Arizona Global Campus online students work in a virtual environment that provides asynchronous and synchronous learning opportunities in the process of taking classes and meeting course requirements. Students can access their virtual classrooms as well as support resources through the university’s learning management system 24/7 within the parameters of a course, typically one week prior to the course start through to one week after the course end. All course learning activities, such as readings, multimedia, assignments, lectures, and class discussions, are posted within the classroom as are eTextbooks and other resources. Students have access to the University of Arizona Global Campus Online Library and Writing Center for resources related to research and writing any time of the day. A technology helpdesk is available around the clock.
