frequently. Students receive individualized support for idea development and critique of work.
To keep pace with the course, students should expect to log in regularly to CE Link, our online
course management platform.

Students in these courses should plan to spend two to three hours each week reviewing
lessons, participating in discussion forums, and completing assignments.
