This five-minute presentation will help you visualize how alignment has the power to make visible the interconnection between outcomes, materials, assignments, and assessments, providing fluidity to the design process and structural integrity to the final product.
After this session, participants will be able to . . .
Identify the QM Standards that require alignment.
Visualize alignment as an organizational structure that lends to coherent course design.
Description
In this series of Quality Talks, presenters will demonstrate how they design courses to meet QM Specific Standard 5.3. The presenters will have only five minutes to explain their approach; therefore session participants will get to see four different ways to approach this Standard.

Join our University System Quality Matters Council during this highly engaging panel and explore the nuances of establishing a model for inter-institutional collaboration in the pursuit of ensuring system-wide equity and quality in online learning.
Join us to discuss how a rapid prototyping model can be paired with QM to design quality online courses in a hurry. We will also share how we prioritize enhancements and use an iterative design strategy to achieve continuous improvement over time.
Learn from our experiences and walk away with a clear picture of how blended learning with online teachers is successfully meeting the needs of students across an entire state.
Quality is perceived as intrinsically connected to cost and access, as defined in the eternal triangle concept; that is, an increase on one side of the triangle necessitates adjustments in the other two with at least one of those being decreased. The Iron Triangle has been related to education in that increasing quality of education increases cost and therefore would greatly reduce access to education. Technology is suggested as a way to break, or at least add flexibility to the iron triangle. But, from whose viewpoint and how?
From a case study developed for a large R1 institution, the researcher offers a methodology for making the case to fund QM as an institutional effectiveness program to increase completion and spur innovation in teaching and learning. This poster will showcase a return on investment (RoI) tool for calculating 10-year revenue impact, allocating program revenue, and analyzing the redistribution of funds to support program start-up and expansion. Participants will leave with an online toolkit for use in adapting the working documents to their own organizational attributes. (PCs - Recommended)
Join us on a visual journey to expand possibilities in creative thinking, overcoming functional fixedness, and managing change to support self-efficacy in innovating the tools we use, tasks we assign, and ways we interact to prepare our students and ourselves for the inevitable gift that is change.
Who leads quality assurance on a daily basis? Our instructional designers pursue quality using an innovative, collaborative approach to course development. Strike a balance giving feedback on design guidelines without dampening faculty creativity.

Quia is a web tool for quintessential instructional archive and provides a wide variety of tools that are used by teachers. It is a popular platform for educational activities for teaching and learning for all areas of education. Also, Quia includes different kinds of online activities by using the teacher’s content, an online testing system that has immediate feedback, online surveys, a class webpage, and access to many free shareable activities.
Is your institution ready to launch a quality online program? Do you need ideas to “break through” faculty disinterest or inertia with respect to QM? Then this session is for you! Come along on a “tour” of one institution’s journey to quality, what we are learning along to way, and how we are embracing the challenges we know are yet to come.
One size does not fit all. This idea is especially true when designing an online course for maximum accessibility. How can we help educators power up in areas of accessible online course design in order to create a more effective learning environment for all students? Come to this session to find out how many paths we can discover to reach the same outcome.
This conversation started before the presentation using the #QMPBJ hashtag on Twitter.

In the late 1980s an industrial fabricator, 3D Systems, produced three-dimensional models that became working prototypes of final products. In the world of instructional design, Rapid Prototyping has given us insights into a faster course creation process while retaining a quality instructional design methodology. By using the Quality Matters Rubric as a guide for the prototype, quality course design can be “baked-in” the end result. With the research-based practices in the course prototype, it is easier to create a quality course.
As educators, we commit to high quality standards when designing online courses. Join us for a presentation on incorporating alignment of Standards 2, 3, and 4 in the development of your online courses. We will share and discuss creative course design strategies to meet these standards.
Abraham Lincoln once stated, “When I read aloud, two senses catch the idea: first, I see what I read; second, I hear it, and therefore I can remember it better.” Expanding on Lincoln's idea, ReadSpeaker’s text-to-speech technology incorporates more than you seeing and hearing your material. Our suite of tools perfectly fit Universal Design for Learning: the WHAT of learning, the HOW of learning, and the WHY of learning.
Come to this active learning session to develop a model for an ID internship program at your own institution. Internships help professionalize the ID career while simultaneously benefitting the hosting organization.
What if you found out you were making all of your important decisions based on flawed perceptions? Empower successful online learning experiences by implementing an action research model at your organization that informs solutions that work.
Heard about "HyFlex" but not sure what it is? Bring your questions to this session, where we'll highlight some HyFlex-related research, discuss HyFlex design & teaching practices, & hear from a professor who's been teaching HyFlex courses for years.
