Online learning environment (Stream)

Stream is your online learning community. We want distance students to feel part of a real class. The online learning environment allows you to share and exchange ideas with fellow students and lecturers. Depending on the course you are enrolled in, you can also access the latest news in your subject, study notes, recent articles, online presentations, assignments, activities, and tests.

Library

Massey University has a world-class Distance Library Service which has been recognized through a number of awards. We have over 870,000 books and countless journals and articles. You can browse the catalogue online and download the latest publications relevant to your area of study. In addition, you can have an online consultation with a librarian and request books via our overnight delivery service which are delivered free of charge to your mailbox.

On-campus workshops

On-campus workshops can take two different forms depending on the course you are studying.

Contact workshops

Contact workshops are an opportunity for you to interact with other students taking the same course and to receive face-to-face tuition. They usually last from one to five days. They are designed as an integral part of your study programme and you should plan to attend if possible. You are advised to check the contact workshop requirements for courses before enrolling as some courses are compulsory.

Assessments

Assessment may take a number of different forms including assignments, laboratories, field trips, or on-campus contact workshops.

As a distance student you will have to think about how these different types of assessments fit into your schedule in order to complete all compulsory elements. For example, if you know you cannot attend a compulsory contact workshop, it is best not to enroll in that course.

For the majority of courses, you will be able to electronically submit your assignments for marking. However, there may be times when you will need to use the postal system. Assignments for off shore students will be returned by airmail or electronically.

Examinations

When enrolling in courses you nominate the venue where you would like to sit the examination. For students studying off shore, venues are also available outside of New Zealand.

We are also able to cater for some special requirement such as students with disability.
