This course requires approximately 3 hours per week of asynchronous online lectures, during which students must be actively engaged and able to enter responses to lesson- related questions. In addition, students should expect to spend up to 6+ additional hours per week engaged in scheduled, course-related tasks (e.g., assigned readings, lesson-based activities, and assignments). Although asynchronous, students are expected to adhere to a weekly schedule, just as they would if attending an on-campus course.<br/><strong>
