- Drop-In Content – Smaller modules that can be used as supplemental content or on their own.
- Modular Courses – Full semester courses designed to be adapted as needed. They can stand on their own, and are easy to rearrange to suit your course coverage.
- Integrated Courses – Full semester courses meant to be used as-is. Integrated courses are designed to be self-containing so isolating specific modules may be challenging.
