FOUR METHODS OF APPORTIONMENTFOR DISTANCE EDUCATION
Weekly CensusRegularly Scheduled, Coterminous with Primary Term
Advantages: No positive attendance tracking; maximizes apportionment Disadvantage: Not compatible with “by arrangement” nature of DE courses
Daily CensusRegularly Scheduled, Not Coterminous with Primary Term Advantages and disadvantages: Same as for Weekly Census
Positive AttendanceNot Regularly Scheduled Advantage: Compatible with “by arrangement” nature of DE Disadvantage: Need to track and report online hours for students
Independent Study Advantage: No need to track hours Disadvantage: Collects one WSCH per unit of credit
TECHNOLOGY-MEDIATED INSTRUCTION
Web-Enhanced Course is scheduled on campus; instructor uses web or
Internet to post syllabus, class assignments. Not considered DE for apportionment
Online
Essentially all instruction is online; may be occasional campus meetings
Considered DE for apportionment Hybrid Courses
At least 51% instruction is online; remainder on campus Considered DE for apportionment
SCHEDULING HYBRID COURSES
Fixed day/time for classroom component
By arrangement hours for online component
WC or DC apportionment methods: not possible because of online “by arrangement” hours
PA: not practical to collect hours (unless web system permits online tracking)
IS: will permit a fixed day/time component + by arrangement component
SCHEDULING FOR HYBRID COURSES (Lecture Courses Only)
Apportionment Method: Distance Ed/Independent Study
Collects one WSCH per Unit Credit.

ADVANTAGES OF HYBRID COURSES
For Students Most DE students are local; work/family
commitments require more flexibility Reduces student time on campus
For Instructors Smaller commitment than a full DE course:
encourages instructors to try distance education Provides classroom time for testing, face-to-face
interaction
Facilities Assists in room scheduling

SAN DIEGO MESA COLLEGE
Highlighting Computer Technology
Many courses at San Diego Mesa College require students to use computer technology. These courses fall into three major categories.
Regular Campus-based Courses
Courses taught on-campus where students write papers and/or carry out homework assignments using computer software or the web, and/or access the course syllabus and assignments online.
Online Courses Courses taught online where the majority of instruction is provided via the web and/or SDCCD Online. The course may also have some irregularly scheduled meetings on campus for orientation, tests, etc.
Hybrid Courses Courses taught by blending on- campus meetings with online instruction. This type of course requires students to attend regularly scheduled meetings on-campus as well as receive instruction via the web and/or SDCCD Online.
SCHEDULE NARRATIVE (Ad)
Hybrid courses having a majority of course work completed online are listed under the Online heading in the printed class schedule. These courses may also be found in the online schedule at http://schedule.sdccd.edu/ under the choice of On-Line/Distance Education Classes.
Students considering taking an online or online hybrid course are advised to take the Online Learning Readiness Assessment and to review the Online Student Orientation (http://www.sdccdonline.net) prior to registering to determine if they have the necessary technical and student skills to succeed with online learning.

ISIS Comment for Hybrid Courses
CRN XXXXX utilizes online instruction and regularly scheduled on-campus meetings. Online course instruction will be available at www.sdccdonline.net on the first day of class. Contact Prof. John Doe at [email protected] for additional information.
