The other means of communication will be done via 'Skype / webcams' allowing you to join sessions or have contact with other students on the course. All students are connected via following each other's websites and a real sense of belonging to a group can be achieved.
All the information available in a normal class is available to distance learners. You would be at no disadvantage unless you choose to do a unit dependent on contact with a photography studio. At all times you will give valuable constructive feedback on how your work is evolving and progressing at every stage. You are able to contact your tutor / mentor at anytime along with email alerts direct to your tutor every time you produce a blog entry.
As part of this program you will be working on an online system called Edmodo, please visit;
