There are two types of Distance Learning courses at Sul Ross:
Courses listed as "Web-delivered" in the class schedule are delivered entirely on the Internet using Blackboard, an online course management system. Students will rarely, if ever, physically meet as part of the course requirements
Courses listed as "Distance Education" in the class schedule make use of the videoconferencing equipment and may or may not use Blackboard to manage communication and the delivery of course content. Distance Education courses do have regularly scheduled times when students meet, though not all students will gather at the same place
