Armstrong Atlantic State University
Off-Campus & Distance Learning Committee

Advisory Committee on Distributed Learning

The Advisory Committee on Distributed Learning shall oversee and recommend policies and procedures for the approval, distribution and assessment of distributed learning courses and programs at AASU. Distributed learning includes both off-campus and distance learning modalities. Off-campus instruction refers to those classes away from main campus but still anchored in face-to-face instruction. Distance learning programs include technology-assisted modes where instructor and learner are at a distance (e.g. GSAMS and on-line courses). Members shall be nominated by the dean of faculty and appointed by the president. Service on the committee shall continue until a member resigns from the university or is replaced by the president. The president shall rotate membership of the committee periodically to provide diversity.

The committee shall have a member from the College of Arts and Sciences, College of Education, College of Health Professions, School of Graduate Studies, Academic and Enrollment Services, the library, the Office of Student Affairs, Computer and Information Services (CIS) and the Advisory Committee on Computing, Information Services and Computer-Mediated Educational Technologies (CISCMET). The president may appoint additional, ad hoc members as needed.
