I don't know. Kinda sounds like it from the TESC website:
Quote:e-Pack Courses
e-Pack courses allow students to prepare for a comprehensive final examination by taking a series of chapter quizzes delivered online. This credit-earning option is perfect for self-motivated learners who want the freedom of self-paced learning within a semester time frame but would benefit from online chapter quizzes to gauge their readiness for the comprehensive examination. The quizzes break up the subject matter into manageable units and do not count toward the final grade. They also provide simple, easy-to-understand, real-time feedback on each question to which the student has responded. By using the feedback, the student will know which topics need further review. Each course is designed around a textbook, and features access to the online chapter quizzes, an opportunity to earn credit on the comprehensive examination and Web site support. There is no mentor. System requirements are: an Internet connected PC, one of the major browser programs such as Internet Explorer, and Windows 98 or higher.
Wow. That sounds awesome. Now I really wish it was an option for my course! Oh well. Here's what TESC has to say about FlashTrack Courses:
Quote:FlashTrack Courses
These courses are delivered to students on a 2 GB flash drive loaded with all course materials and software needed to prepare for the final exam. FlashTrack courses contain the same structure and functionality as an online course but enable students to work offline
Still sounds like you get to skip midterms... *hopeful*
