eCampus- eCampus courses may be OA or OS. The courses meet the same definitions as OA and OS above, but the course will be on the eCampus Blackboard instead of Blackboard Den.
Blended (>50% to <100% Online) Some of the course is live and some is self-paced with weekly due dates. The live sessions can be on campus or online.
