LaneOnline provides credit courses delivered through technology. Over 250 courses in various subject areas are offered each year. LaneOnline courses follow the same term schedules as on-campus classes and students follow the same admission and registration procedures as on-campus students. In order to participate in LaneOnline courses, students will need access to a computer with internet, current browser, and required software. Tuition for LaneOnline courses is the same as other courses. A $10 per credit fee is assessed on online, online w/in-person testing, hybrid/in-person, hybrid/zoom, hyflex and live-streaming courses with a maximum of $50 per course. The fee covers course development, instructor training and support, direct student support, equipment and online tools.
The Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer and Associate of General Studies degrees and significant coursework for other degrees and certificates can be completed by taking online courses through LaneOnline. In order to help easily locate them on the web schedule of classes, online and hybrid courses will have "online" or "hybrid" and the Online/Hybrid icon listed next to the course title. All online courses can be viewed in one location on the website by going to "What courses are available online" and clicking the desired term.
Distance Education Modalities
In all courses, instructors may require students to use Moodle to access assignments or course content. Students must have a computer and a stable broadband internet connection.
Synchronous = there are scheduled class meetings (in person or on Zoom)
Asynchronous = there are no scheduled class meetings
Online (OL) - All course content, resources, assignments, and assessments are online (usually via Moodle). There are no required meeting times on campus or on Zoom (the courses are asynchronous). Student-to-student interaction, teacher-to-student interaction, and social community are hallmarks of online learning.
Online w/In-Person Testing (OT) - Courses in this designation will provide fully asynchronous OR online-synchronous (scheduled meetings over Zoom) instruction but will require students to visit Lane's campus (or another approved testing location) for assessments.
Hybrid/In-Person (HIP) - A portion of the class instruction is conducted online (asynchronously) usually via Moodle, and the rest is conducted during regularly scheduled in-person meetings. The in-person meetings occur on campus at a specified time and attendance is expected.
Hybrid/Zoom (HZ) - A portion of the class instruction is conducted online (asynchronously) usually via Moodle, and the rest is conducted during regularly scheduled Zoom meetings. The Zoom meetings occur at a specified time and attendance is expected.
HyFlex (HF) - A portion of the class instruction is conducted online (asynchronously) usually via Moodle, and the rest is conducted during regularly scheduled meetings. The scheduled meetings are offered in-person and simultaneously on Zoom and attendance is expected. Students can choose on a day-to-day basis whether to attend class either on campus or on Zoom.
Live Streaming (LS) - Live Streaming courses allow students to attend and interact in a course via Zoom at scheduled class meeting times. Some Live Streaming classes may be paired with on-campus courses, so students will be part of a class but will attend online (via Zoom and Moodle).
