REM includes virtual exchange courses, fully online courses, and other creatively designed courses to support this modality.

REM courses enrich Brown’s curriculum because they allow students to continue their progress to degree, even if they are not physically present -- due to scenarios such as study abroad/away and personal circumstances, including accommodation. (Please see this guide for identifying through Canvas students approved to study in remote modality.) The intentional design of these courses also may help instructors achieve other pedagogical or curricular goals, such as external outreach through virtual exchange classes.

Please refer to the faculty guide on Remote Accessible Teaching for REM definitions and additional information. Contact sheridan_center@brown.edu for any questions about the proposal process or for a consultation about teaching in REM modality.
