Overview: A “Micro-credit Course” is a flexible and diverse teaching format that allows instructors to deliver focused, intensive learning experiences in a compact timeframe. These courses can take many forms, digital courses, community engagement, interdisciplinary practice, guest lectures from industry professionals, and internship visits, making them ideal for practice-oriented, interdisciplinary, or skill-focused teaching contexts that benefit from industry perspectives.
Overview: A “Distance Learning Course” is an online course conducted synchronously or asynchronously, enabling teachers and students to teach and learn without being in the same physical location. It is especially well-suited for theory-heavy, discussion-oriented, or cross-institutional and interdisciplinary courses, including general education, humanities and social sciences, information skills, management, and language courses, all of which can benefit from enhanced interaction and flexibility through digital tools.
