Students: This chart is your guide to understanding fall 2020 teaching modalities

COVID-19 has required us to make a number of important changes to the way we deliver our courses this semester.

In the fall 2020 course schedule, students may see new and unfamiliar notations in course titles, such as “WEB,” “HYB” and “EVL,” and meeting locations such as “ONLINE SYNC” and “ONLINE AYSYNC.” It can be confusing to keep track of these new modalities and to understand what to expect from each of them.

So, we have created a new Course Modalities Chart to help students navigate the differences and make sure they can successfully prepare for the new academic year.

Please note that COVID-19 conditions may result in alternative plans, so be sure to follow any explicit directions your faculty make about changes to the modality. And for service desk assistance: 845-257-HELP (4357), servicedesk@newpaltz.edu.
