Academic Related (ACA) Courses
The Math, Physics, and Educational Studies Department manages the Academic Related (ACA) courses and encourages all students in College programs to enroll in ACA courses during their first or second semesters. These courses provide information which assist in successful course completion, progress to graduation, and/or transfer to four-year institutions. ACA 122, College Transfer Success, is required for all students in the college transfer associate degree programs and strongly recommended for any Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree-seeking student. This course delivers information and strategies necessary to develop clear academic and professional goals beyond the community college experience and to assist students in exploring and researching future career options, related degrees and program options, and the transfer process to a senior institution. Students not interested in transfer will have the opportunity to explore and research future employment options. ACA 111, College Student Success, is required for all students obtaining Associate of Applied Science degrees. This course introduces Gaston College’s physical, academic, and social environment and promotes the personal development essential for success. Students in non-transfer programs or degrees may choose to take ACA-122 instead of ACA-111 to keep transfer options viable.
Distance Education (eLearning)
Distance education provides educational opportunities for students who are separated from the instructor by time and/or physical distance. Gaston College offers two main types of online distance education courses:
Internet courses meet online, where students receive lessons, complete assignments, and communicate in a virtual classroom. Students must have regular access to a computer and the internet; have good computer skills; work independently; and be self-motivated. Internet courses have course content, a schedule for completing online assignments, and require a minimum of 2-4 hours of independent study per course credit hour. Generally students are NOT required to come to campus; however, some Internet courses may require proctored tests/presentations or labs to complete the course.
Hybrid/Web Blended courses meet onsite and online, as designated on the course schedule. While these courses utilize some of the same technologies as Internet courses, students also attend some face-to-face sessions.
Many of our traditional face-to-face courses will use Blackboard to supplement instruction.
In addition, Gaston College provides a few courses between the three (3) campuses via the two-way Interactive audio/video network. Students meet in one (1) of the video classrooms and have class with students at the other campuses. The instructor is physically at one of the three campuses.
Hybrid Flexible (HyFlex) is a multi-modal instructional delivery method where the College has the option to deliver the online portion of a curriculum course synchronously, asynchronously, or both as long as 100% of the instruction is offered face to face with the instructor in a physical classroom. Students may choose to attend the regularly scheduled in-person session or the online option on a session-by-session basis.
Students may attend this class in-person as scheduled or virtually as scheduled. Attendance is required either on-campus or virtually as scheduled.
Out-of-State Online Student Grievance
Gaston College students residing outside the state of North Carolina who desire to resolve a grievance are encouraged to follow the College’s Student Complaint Procedure [Catalog Reference, Appendices]. If an issue cannot be resolved internally, a complaint may be filed with the appropriate state agency for handling complaints or with Gaston College’s accrediting agency. Please visit the Distance Education webpage at Gaston College Complaint Resolution for Online/Distance Education Students for more information.
FERPA and Distance Education
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) requirements and guidelines apply and extend to distance education students. Gaston College ensures the integrity of its courses and programs offered through distance education by verifying the identity of students participating in classes and completing coursework. The primary method for verification is a required secure login and password to Blackboard. Students are advised to protect their username and password at all times. In addition to secure login credentials, some distance education classes may require proctored examinations. The College provides proctoring services free of charge at the Katherine Harper Testing Center. The College does not charge students related to verification identity, though students are required to present a photo ID, i.e., driver’s license or Gaston College ID (for which there is additional charge) at the Testing Center. Students who are unable to take an exam at the Testing Center may often use proctoring services at local libraries or colleges free of charge. For students who are unable to use any of the free-of-charge proctoring services, any proctoring charges incurred are the responsibility of the student.
Gaston College Libraries
Gaston College Libraries offer a variety of library services for students. Collections include books, magazines and newspapers, videos, CDs, DVDs, etc. The Gaston College Libraries are members of the CCLINC consortium. This consortium, composed of 52 of the 58 community colleges, shares a library system and provides students with access to the members’ collections.
The Gaston College Libraries serve all programs, faculty, and students at different levels of scholarship. Gaston College librarians instruct users on how to access, retrieve, evaluate, use and enjoy information sources in the creation of new knowledge. Library instruction aims to be responsive to the cultural, technological and curricular changes of information, and to provide skills that increase the comfort level of the library user. Gaston College Libraries offers instruction service in the classroom, or in the campus library. This instruction incorporates information literacy standards that are subject-specific and/or a general introduction geared to college-level research.
Computer workstations are located in each of the Libraries: Morris Library on the Dallas Campus and the Jonas Library on the Lincoln Campus. Computer users must abide by the College’s Electronic Resources Acceptable Use Policy. Internet access is provided; moreover, wireless Internet is available to students throughout the Libraries.

Students who are not satisfied with their understanding or performance in a course may use this free service.

Writing Center
The Gaston College Writing Center exists to support students in communicating effectively. We encourage independent learning through collaborative conversations and positive interactions. In our nurturing environment, students can gain confidence and proficiency in writing and communication processes.
The Writing Center is a place where Gaston College students can benefit from tutoring sessions with experienced Writing Coaches to discuss any writing-related topic for any writing assignment in any class.

In this setting, the student will work directly with a tutor on writing assignments and building basic writing skills. Students working with a one-on-one tutor may receive tutoring services up to four times per assignment. While appointments are preferred, students may also be seen as walk-ins. However, students should be aware that they are not guaranteed to be seen when they do not have an appointment, that they may have to wait until a coach is available, and that walk-ins are seen on a first come, first served basis.
Small Group Tutoring: Students with team assignments may be assigned to one tutor to work in a small group setting. In this type of tutoring, students collaborate with each other and with the tutor, who serves as a coach or guide through the writing process. Small groups consist of no more than three to four students.
Online Tutoring: We offer online tutoring to all students in all classes. If our operating hours are not accessible to them, students taking English courses are also able to access ThinkingStorm during times the Writing Center is not open. An Online Tutoring Request form must be completed prior to an online tutoring session. This form is designed to collect information that assists our tutors in providing quality feedback and instruction. Once an appointment has been established, the student receives instructions via e-mail, including a Zoom Link and their Coach’s contact information.
- Before a Coach can be assigned an online appointment, the Coach must go through a short training and shadow another Coach who is conducting an online appointment.
