Mining Lectures - Examples

Lecture Samples

The Mining Engineering Technician Program is not your average distance learning course.

This course has been developed to offer the distance student an experience that is as close as possible to the classroom, lecture-based model which is comfortable and familiar for most people. While reading textbooks and materials is part of the program, many of the key concepts, skills, and tasks are further explained and expanded upon with custom-designed video components. These “voiced-over” Microsoft PowerPoint presentations and/or audio files are one of the unique features of this distance course you won’t find in many other programs.

 

In fact, the addition of these videos has proven to be so well received by students that many on-site courses are using them to offer students the ability to review material, “attend” missed lectures, and support a wide variety of learning styles. This means you have the luxury of pausing, rewinding, and reviewing many of your unit lessons as often you need. This results in increased understanding, better test scores, and more confidence.

 

If you find you still have questions you can easily access your professor or classmates via phone, email, or live messaging (during select office hours). This learning couldn’t be more flexible because it is designed with you in mind! Find out what redefined learning means to you and how we can make your educational experience better than you could have imagined.
