Asynchronous Courses

Asynchronous courses: Flexible, autonomous learning available anytime, anywhere

Free from the limits of time and space, asynchronous courses are presented in the form of pre-recorded videos on the teaching platform—students can learn flexibly and autonomously through your carefully produced videos.

NTNU Online provides dedicated filming services for teachers to produce asynchronous classes (available only to NTNU courses seeking Ministry of Education remote learning certification). Teachers are welcome to ask questions about video recording, hardware/software, and so forth.
