This program has been designed for academic leaders, online education professionals, and anyone supporting faculty through a continued institutional emphasis on online instruction.

Though the checklist that will be shared during the webcast is inspired by the Quality Matters framework, its principles are transcendent and will apply at both QM and non-QM institutions.

• Assignments

What types of assignments best lend themselves to positive learning outcomes? How can you scaffold assignments across your course so that success does not hinge on one large online exam?

• Testing

How do we rethink traditional testing while still maintaining its integrity? What other assessments can you use in lieu of traditional exams? How can tests be proctored in the online environment?

• Accessibility considerations

How can you allow for accommodations related to physical and cognitive disabilities in the online setting? What are the minimum standards every institution should meet when designing online courses? Who are your campus partners in this effort and when/how should they be involved?
