The chief online officer is gaining influence in schools where online learning is becoming a mainstream activity. This session will compare CHLOE Survey results with the experience of a panel of four chief online officers regarding their management role and involvement in online quality assurance.
Learn what the third annual CHLOE (Changing Landscape of Online Education) Survey of Chief Online Officers found about such issues as the institutional governance of online learning, whether quality assurance processes drive change, and the current status and potential of blended learning.
Demonstration of the Cidi Labs Design Tools in Canvas will be shown, both screenshots and a live demo, wireless connectivity permitting. We will also discuss the steps we took to create templates to help meet specific QM standards. Participants will also be shown how to request a sandbox with Cidi Labs to try out the tools themselves. A question/answer session will also be included at the end of the talk.
Sixty-seven percent of the students in an online freshman seminar class reported that the group project was their favorite activity. In this session, we will discuss how the instructor used Quality Matters recommendations, transparency, and inclusive design to transform the group presentation experience from disastrous to delightful. We will apply QM, TILT, and inclusive design to real projects, and discuss how you can use these concepts to enhance the group projects in your classes.
Quality Matters is great, but why bother?
Let's talk about: (1) why instructors who certified courses went the extra mile, (2) why instructors who chose not certify didn't go the extra mile, and (3) how we can use their experiences to help more instructors apply the Quality Matters Rubric to more courses.
