How does an Independent Learning course compare to a regular course on CU’s campus?
The appropriate academic department has approved all independent learning courses. In addition, the department has approved the instructor. Courses are accredited as a part of the campus accreditation process. Courses are designed to match the course on campus, though they may not be exactly the same and may not use the same textbook. Students tell us that the courses take about the same or slightly more effort than a live campus course. Finally, there tends to be more written work and instructor feedback in independent learning courses and, obviously, no face to face interaction with instructors or classmates.
