Distance Learning
Distance Learning Department Overview
The Distance Learning Department assists both faculty and students from the Alva, Enid, and Woodward campuses with long-distance learning. The professor will teach from a "home" campus and link up with the other campuses using video-conferencing software/hardware and/or Zoom technology to communicate back and forth.
NWOSU also works closely with the University Center at Ponca City to connect its students to NWOSU classes.
We assist by:
- proctoring exams for both ITV/Online classes
- setting up Zoom links if they are needed
- providing basic technical support for ITV/Zoom classes
- being a liaison between the faculty and students by use of the Campus Courier
Please use this form to include with your class materials when sending them through the Campus Courier.
In the Enid Distance Learning office, we have a separate office space for Adjuncts and professors who travel to Enid from other campuses.This space has a computer, phone, and a place to make copies/print.
