How
are they to be used?

There are a
number of scenarios which highlight how the "Commonwealth
Courses" might
be used:
1. An
adjunct is hired just before the semester begins to teach a
course. They are not necessarily clear on the content that
should be covered and have had no time to prepare to teach
the course. A college can point them at the Commonwealth
Course materials for ready-to-go content that is at an
appropriate level and matched to the course requirements.
The adjunct may use the whole or just the part of the
material on offer.
2. A
professor is teaching a course and finds a particularly
useful module in one of the courses. They link to it from
their Blackboard site.
