Learn about different class formats and learning experiences for students.
In-Person Classes
You attend class in a traditional classroom. You will be expected to attend class meetings at a regular time on regular days of the week.
In addition to attending classes on-site, you will also be expected to log into Canvas, Chemeketa’s online learning management system, to supplement your classroom instruction and/or complete assignments.

In-Person Learning Experience
- Learning in an in-person course includes instruction delivered by your instructor through real-time, in-person presentations and demonstrations.
- Your instructor may also use the class meeting time to conduct group activities as well as independent work.
- You will also learn by completing homework assignments outside of class time, such as reading course materials; viewing videos; solving problem sets; completing written, audio/visual assignments; responding to discussion boards; or engaging in community-based experiences.
- For each hour of in-person class time, expect to complete 2-3 hours of homework each week. So, a 4-credit credit hour course will require 4 hours of class meeting time plus 8-12 hours of homework time each week for a total of 12-16 hours of work time each week.
- For lab based classes 1-credit hour will require 2-3 hours of meeting time, plus 2-3 hours of homework time each week.
