We
are a Christian University that offers distance learning.
We believe the learning process requires personal interaction,
that's why a learning community where students and teacher
can interact is very important to us. Thus, we emphasize
the formation of local study groups guided by a facilitator.
Following are some necessary conditions to start a group:
1. Local groups naturally
exist where Amid World Mission has a missionary base.
2. A Amid missionary with teaching ministry is normally
a local coordinator.
3. A room furnished with the followiing equipments are
necessary to support a local group.
- Student chairs.
- DSL internet connection able to support video-conference.
- Computer equipped with audio and video-camera to transmit
the study room sound and image.
- Multimedia projector or a big screen tv to show the
teacher.
4. Students should have internet access to follow the
class assignments though amidlearning platform. On the
platform, students will review recorded lessons, do
tests and quizzes, chat with teachers and classmates,
and participate on pannel of discussions.
5. The group facilitator will send to the university
all student's documents required to be kept on file
as hard copy.
6. However, if a some student do not have the conditions
to participate in a local group, it is possible to pursue
a degree studying online. For this category of students,
our virtual campus offers opportunities to study alone.
Students need acomputer with a fast internet connection
to study recorded classes and to fulfill all other requirements.
This cathegory of students also need to enroll filling
the forms and presenting all required documents take
classes.
