How do I take an online/distance course?

Our Ecampus Course Demo is a great introduction to all aspects of our online classes.

OSU Extended Campus uses a system called the Blackboard (Bb) Learning and Community Portal System. This program serves as a virtual classroom where instructors can post announcements, class notes, assignments, syllabi and grades. Discussion boards are often available for students to interact with their peers and for instructors to provide feedback.

Some courses use the aid of videos or DVDs as a learning tool.

Some instructors give exams that must be administered in a proctored setting. Visit the exams and proctoring page of our website for more information.
