HOW DOES THIS
KIND OF PROGRAM WORK?
Because most individuals have studied at traditional
on-campus colleges and universities, the manner in which distance
education courses are completed
may be something of a mystery. What follows is a
generic overview of how an MISD program is completed when using
one or more of our distance learning options. In
fact, many of
our students actually use two or even three of these
options during the
process of earning their degree! Switching
between options can often make it possible to graduate
more quickly! Which option is best? Answer:
The one that is best for you!
DISTANCE LEARNING OPTION #
1
The Standard Directed Study Method using the Internet and
email to send and receive lessons and information.
Testimonials from students taking
these courses.
 This
option is a model of
innovation and simplicity. It's simple and
straightforward, requiring only access to the Internet
and basic computer skills.
Program
orientation, a personalized Internet landing site, study
guides, and student services which are based online, take
the worry out of starting something new. Throughout
the program, students have direct access to the Divinity
School staff and faculty via e-mail, and telephone.
Completed
course assignments are sent
directly to the school through simple email attachments. In addition, students have
full access to Master's
online digital library, and a full-service online
bookstore. Adequate study
resources are always only a click away!
DISTANCE LEARNING OPTION #2
Live Online Seminars
that allow you to attend a real-time learning event
without ever leaving home.
Accelerated Learning Seminars
 If
you have a busy schedule, and limited time for travel,
then online seminars may be the perfect option. Live
online
seminars
can be used to substitute a regular online course, or in
some cases, may even be the method used for an entire degree
program. Live online seminars are commonly held in
two day events. Pre-seminar
assignments required, ending with
an open-book exam on the final day of the
seminar. In many cases, the online seminar format makes
it possible to complete a three (3) credit course in five
to six weeks. A Typical Online Seminar Event will total
twelve (12) hours, but is scheduled over a two-day period.
If you possess basic computer skills and have access to
the Internet, then Online Seminars may be just right for
you!
DISTANCE LEARNING OPTION #
3
On-site
Seminars that you can elect to attend with other
students.
Testimonials from students
taking seminars.
 Throughout the year, Master's conducts
Accelerated Learning Seminars
in Evansville, Indiana and at other strategic locations throughout
the United States.
These seminars
may be used to substitute a regular course, or in
some cases, may be the method for most of the degree
program.
Typically, on-site seminars are held in two to four day
events. Pre-seminar
assignments required, ending with
an open-book exam on the final day of the
seminar. In many cases, this seminar format makes it
possible to complete a three (3) credit course in five to
six weeks. Another benefit is that class size for most seminars is between 15-25.
This allows students and professors close interaction.
In addition, you will have an opportunity to meet other
students, and form friendships that will last a lifetime!
 Just think,
in less time
than it takes to watch a few hours of pointless television
each day, it is literally possible
for you to become a graduate and carry the knowledge you
have gained into the real world where the practical
application of God's Word will pay dividends throughout
eternity!
Now would be a good time to
consider the following Biblical principle:
"See then that ye
walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming
the time, because the days are evil." (Ephesians
5:15,16).
Consider this question: "What am I really
doing with the time God is giving me?" Time invested
in an MISD degree program, is time redeemed! |
