Learning Methodology
Our learning platform is Moodle, which replaces the traditional classroom and provides students with the necessary tools to develop their learning in an accessible, intuitive, and efficient environment. The platform has been standardized to ensure a structured learning experience and to avoid confusion.
Some of the resources available on the platform include:
Course Resources:
- Chats: Facilitate real-time interaction between students and instructors.
- Forums: Asynchronous tool that allows participants to create and share discussion threads available throughout the course.
- Calendar: Helps students track their progress in the course, reminding them of assignments, quizzes, and exams.
- Document Submission Area: Dedicated space for the structured and organized submission of assignments and academic work.
Online Campus
The University operates year-round, except on holidays listed in the Academic Calendar. Classes are conducted asynchronously through the University of Cape Canaveral’s Learning Management System (LMS).
Students must participate weekly in scheduled chats and discussions prepared by their instructors and shared through the platform. Attendance is mandatory, and students are expected to log into their courses at least three times per week to maintain active enrollment.
Additionally, special academic activities may be scheduled at specific times convenient for both students and instructors. Failure to regularly attend registered courses may result in administrative withdrawal and, in some cases, academic probation or dismissal from the program.
Assessments
Forums, chats, and other communication tools enable instructors to provide ongoing assessment and formative feedback prior to formal evaluations.
Formal assessments are conducted through assignments and quizzes:
- Assignments: Students submit a written document through the online platform, where the instructor reviews the submission, provides feedback, and assigns a grade.
- Quizzes: Automatically graded within the platform, offering immediate feedback to students.
All examinations are conducted through the university’s secure online platform, requiring authorized login credentials for access. Students must comply with the examination schedule outlined in the course syllabus. The opportunity to retake an exam is subject to the instructor’s discretion.
Instructors have access to the platform to post assignments and exams, with a grading deadline of 48 hours for regular coursework throughout the term and 5 days for final exam results.
