Online Courses
Heritage Christian University incorporates Populi, a course management system, and Tegrity, an online delivery system, to deliver online courses. Both of these web interfaces are designed to enhance the learning experience of HCU students both on and off campus.All courses taken at the university require the use of Populi for delivery of course documents and testing throughout each semester. Instructors use the tools in Populi in varying degrees and for different graded assignments.
Tegrity allows a student to play back any and all class sessions recorded by the instructor, in part or whole. Tegrity audio/video is accessed through the link in courses on Populi. Not all on-campus classes are recorded. Audio/video of the recorded classes can be streamed over the Internet, or in some cases downloaded to an MP3 player or Razor cell phone for offline listening. Classes are indexed for easy navigation and may be searched by keywords.
