self-paced online course with content available during a set timeframe) Synchronous (e.g.,
an online course with real-time virtual sessions, with all participants logged in
simultaneously) Hybrid (e.g., an online course involving a mix of asynchronous and
synchronous instruction)

may be irregular, guidance-based, and tailored to one student's unique project or topic
of study.
