Distance Education FAQs
 

Q. Do UMT’s self-paced courses cover the same materials as its instructor-led courses?

Yes. The lecture notes, readings, and assignments are identical.

Q. How do I communicate with faculty?

Email is the primary means of communication. Students and faculty may communicate through a Discussion Board, which allows for group discussion of course materials and assignments. Students can also reach faculty by telephone during their regularly scheduled office hours. Faculty are required to respond to inquiries within 24 hours. Most responses are the same day.

Q. How do I submit assignments?

Assignments are submitted as email attachments to assignments@umtweb.edu.

Q. If I have questions or experience problems with Blackboard, who do I turn to?

The Blackboard system is very intuitive to use. Blackboard has an online Student Manual that explains how to use the system. UMT has supplemented this with its own Student Handbooks for Distance Education, which provides additional information. To obtain the Guide, current students may write to studentservices@umtweb.edu. UMT also provides technical support for students who have difficulty logging on or experience other problems with the system.
