Distance Learning - Rogue Online
roguecc.blackboard.com
RO@roguecc.edu, 541-956-7366
Earn credits toward a degree or brush up on work skills from home or office by taking Rogue Online courses. For many students, distance learning courses are the solution to managing full-time enrollment and full-time life.
Distance learning courses are similar to those held in a classroom. Students have a textbook, assignments and tests, an instructor and classmates. Students do not regularly attend class on campus but should devote at least as much time as they do for campus-based courses.
- Students register for distance learning courses as they would for other RCC classes.
- To successfully complete a distance learning course, students need to be self-motivated, practice good time management skills, and have access to proper technology.
- Some distance learning courses require on-campus testing, labs or meetings.
- Because many online courses require students to watch streaming video programming, students should have access to a computer connected to the internet (preferably high speed), a web browser, and good technical skills.
- You may have to download software for proctored exams.
- Full technical requirements may be found at the RCC Blackboard page.
Getting Started
Orientations are required for all RCC distance learning courses. In the majority of classes, instructors post their orientations online within the class.
For students who are new to online learning or want to refresh their skills, technical orientation videos are posted on the Rogue Online website.
For more information or support, call 541-956-7366.
All online teachers expect students to participate in the class during the first week of the term. Students should check the syllabus to find out what instructors expect. Students not participating during the first week of classes will be subject to the administrative drop policy.
NOTE: RCC’s regular administrative drop policy applies to distance learning courses. For specific information on the steps needed to maintain course enrollment, check your syllabus inside Blackboard.
