The document discusses the challenges and solutions for offering lab science courses online at Whatcom Community College. It describes the college's hybrid Physical Therapist Assistant program, which allows students to complete most of the 9-quarter program online but requires 3-4 weekend visits per quarter for hands-on training, skills assessments, and testing. To enhance the online experience for these hybrid programs, the college implemented various multimedia resources like videos of lab skills and lectures, as well as online tutoring and discussion forums. Faculty also received training to better support online and hybrid course delivery.
