What does online education look like at Houghton?
Your online program at Houghton will look similar to what you expect from a traditional, face-to-face college learning experience, but there are some distinctions:
Online Assignments
Instead of 'live,' in-class sessions, you will participate in video content, readings, and online discussions at your convenience, enhancing your learning experience when and where you choose.
Video Conferencing
Real-time video conferencing allows you to interact with faculty and classmates. Any live conversations will be pre-scheduled and clearly discussed in your course syllabus.
