Hello Everyone,
Our online MSW program is reexamining our course meeting times and frequency for the synchronous courses. I wanted to get a sense for myself how it looks across other online MSW programs. When I taught at another university our class meetings ended by 9:20 p.m. and many courses met weekly for 80 mins. At the current university, course meeting times end by 8:45 p.m. and some courses may only meet 4-6 times a semester.
I am curious what time your courses end at night and any pros/cons. I am wondering about the impact a much later ending time (9:45 p.m.) would have on adjuncts who typically have full-time day jobs as well as the students who many are working all day as well? Also, any input on the avg length of time and frequency of your courses that you feel is best practice?
I appreciate your contributions to this discussion.
