Class/Registration Number—Four-digit number unique to each section. This number can be used to register in the class and is sometimes referred to as Registration Number.

Asynchronous (asynch)—Does not have scheduled meeting days and times. Students complete class activities and assignments as detailed in the course syllabus.

Synchronous (synch)—Meets in real time at the scheduled meeting days and times. Some class meetings may be replaced by asynchronous activities. Refer to the course syllabus for details.

Hybrid—Partially online and partially in person. Some class meetings are held in person as scheduled and the remainder of the class is conducted online. Refer to the course syllabus for details. Internet access required.

HyFlex—The hybrid flexible, or HyFlex, class format is an instructional approach that combines face-to-face (F2F) and online learning. Each class will be offered in-person and online. Pending individual course requirements, students are able to choose which format they prefer for each class: in-person or online

• Note: Because of social distancing, the HyFlex class format is not available for fall 2021, but we hope it will be available beginning spring 2022 and onwards.

ChicoFlex—This is a modification of the HyFlex class format. As with HyFlex classes, ChicoFlex classes combine face-to-face (F2F) and online learning. Likewise, each class section and learning activity will be offered in-person and online.  However, due to social distancing and classroom caps, student preferences for in-person or online delivery may not be able to be accommodated.

• Note: The ChicoFlex class format is designed for fall 2021 use and beyond.
