I'm trying to find the most general term or phrase for the opposite of "online course". When a course is not online, but in a classroom, or anywhere else people interact in the same place, not through a computer, how would I call it?
I'm translating some words used in messages and labels in a e-learning web application used by companies. So, I'm trying to find the right answer for a course, instead of online, took in a classroom or any corporate environment. I choose "Face-to-Face", but don't know if it's the best.

I think there are a number of ways to say this. I'm not sure which is the most common or conventional though.
4 seems might seem like an obvious opposite, but it sounds a little silly to me. I personally would use 2. If for some reason the place where the classes are held is not called a "campus", then my next choice would be 1.
Edit: Face-to-face might work depending on the context. It might not be the best option though because instructions and lessons can be given face-to-face via Skype, for example.
Edit: Upon reconsideration, using face-to-face for Skype lessons does seem like a stretch. There were lots of accurate hits on Google for face-to-face classes meaning a class taken in a classroom.
