Flexible/Adaptive Learning
Learning can take place in a lecture hall, but it doesn’t have to. Becoming a Georgia State student means you have the option to learn whether you’re at home (remote) or also in a classroom (hybrid). With simulcast classrooms being a recent build on campus, you can video conference from anywhere, share whiteboard notes with your class and participate in classroom discussions from your home office.
Over 200 classes have been modified for simulcast learning and six campuses are expected to make this transition. Additionally, students needing to take graduation-required courses don’t have the concern of graduating late. Flexible learning enables students to learn anywhere without interfering with their graduation plans!
Life at Georgia State is a different type of good! The campus is leading the charge in social mobility by providing life-altering opportunities for learners from every background.
As a student, you have numerous tools within reach. Whether you want anything from an affordable education to real-world skills, Georgia State is your place to start.
The difference is #thestateway!
