St. Johns River State College offers a variety of credit course delivery options, so students can take courses that best suit their schedule and learning preference. Regardless of the option chosen, all courses are instructor-led, and all options meet the same learning objectives and level of rigor.
On-Campus
In on-campus course sections, instruction and assessment takes place “face-to-face” with the instructor physically present in the room with the student. Additional course content and assessment may take place online, but 71% or more of the instructional time is on-campus. Classes are offered during the day and in the evening at SJR State’s three campuses and at a variety of locations throughout Clay, Putnam, and St. Johns Counties.
Hybrid
In hybrid course sections, the course’s instruction and assessment is generally blended relatively equally between online and on-campus, giving students the best of both course delivery options. Typically at SJR State, hybrid courses will meet 50 percent of the time in the classroom and 50 percent of the time online, but the split could range between 30-79%.
Online, Limited Seat Time or Live Online, Limited Seat Time
In online or live online limited seat time course sections, the majority of the instructional time is online. Students are required to come to campus less than 20% of the course’s instructional time for on- campus meetings, assessments, labs, etc. The distance learning fee is assessed. Laboratory fees are not assessed when the distance learning fee is applied; however, courses identified as having special fees will be assessed both the special fee and the distance learning fee when the course is taught online as costs are incurred irrespective of course delivery mode. See College Catalog/Student Handbook page 69 for the list of courses with laboratory and special fees.
