NET
In most NET classes, students work on their own throughout the course. In traditional NET classes, there is not much contact among the instructor and the students. However, in English Language Studies classes, students are expected to meet with the instructor and students for 1-2 hours per week. In some classes, students can choose between a morning or evening meeting. Students should look at the comments in MyAccess to make sure they are available during one of the weekly meeting times. Students should plan to spend up to 8 hours per week on the class during fall and spring and up to 16 hours per class during the summer.
