Face-to-Face vs. Online: Can I do both?
The answer is yes! The GS+N program no longer requires you to strictly adhere to either a face-to-face or online course
format. You are free, and encouraged, to try both types of classes throughout your degree program. If you want to
learn more about the differences between face-to-face and online learning environments, please schedule an
appointment with Kate Schoeck at lamannak@emmanuel.edu.
EC Learn Syllabi
Looking for your syllabus before class? Both face-to-face and online instructors are required to post their syllabus on EC
Learn 2 weeks prior to the start of class. If the syllabus is not posted 2 weeks prior, don’t panic! The instructor is likely
running a little behind and will post it as soon as possible. Be sure to check out EC Learn for course announcements and
information!
