Faculty took part in a thorough professional development campaign and redesigned online courses based on national standards outlined in the Quality Matters rubric. An analysis of the impact of the newly redesigned online courses on student success demonstrated positive changes over time. Between 2007 and 2012, there were 24% fewer withdrawals, a 67% reduction in the number of students who earned a failing grade (F), and a 20% increase in the number of online learners who earned passing grades (A-D). Designing online courses based on the QM rubric helped this institution increase student success, enhance student engagement, and start them on the path to higher student completion rates. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1080\/08923647.2015.1057440?needAccess=true\">Click here to access the Harkness article<\/a>.\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel End -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel Start -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel wpsm_panel-default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <h4 class=\"wpsm_panel-title\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a  class=\"collapsed\"  data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#wpsm_accordion_158 \" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-target=\"#ac_158_collapse5\" onclick=\"do_resize()\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ac_title_class\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"margin-right:6px;\" class=\"fa fa-laptop\"><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tShattuck, K.

Utilizing feedback from faculty members the article then concludes additional recommendations that will help improve the impact of QM and they are as follows: Studying student perceptions of quality and satisfaction with the experience of an online course is important; however, it is time for QM-focused research to include methodologies that can cross-tabulate or at least segregate other known factors, such as the impact of teaching, learner readiness, or student support services. Narrowing the search for impact of a QM review to specific groups of standards would be productive. Expanding research by collaboration and inter-institutional sharing among colleagues in the QM community would promote the underlying principles of QM: collegiality, collaboration, and continuous improvement to promote student learning. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wpunj.edu\/dotAsset\/6505debd-5efa-47d8-8c4e-1b2298ac592b.pdf\">Click here to access the Shattuck article<\/a>.\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel End -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n\t\r\n\t\tfunction do_resize(){\r\n\r\n\t\t\tvar width=jQuery( '.wpsm_panel .wpsm_panel-body iframe' ).width();\r\n\t\t\tvar height=jQuery( '.wpsm_panel .wpsm_panel-body iframe' ).height();\r\n\r\n\t\t\tvar toggleSize = true;\r\n\t\t\tjQuery('iframe').animate({\r\n\t\t\t    width: toggleSize ? width : 640,\r\n\t\t\t    height: toggleSize ? height : 360\r\n\t\t\t  }, 250);\r\n\r\n\t\t\t  toggleSize = !toggleSize;\r\n\t\t}\r\n\t\t\r\n<\/script>\t\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 style=\"margin-bottom:20px;display:block;width:100%;margin-top:10px\">Course Overview and Introduction <\/h3>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<style>\r\n\t\t\t\t<style>\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157 .wpsm_panel-heading{\r\n\tpadding:0px !important;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157 .wpsm_panel-title {\r\n\tmargin:0px !important; \r\n\ttext-transform:none !important;\r\n\tline-height: 1 !important;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157 .wpsm_panel-title a{\r\n\ttext-decoration:none;\r\n\toverflow:hidden;\r\n\tdisplay:block;\r\n\tpadding:0px;\r\n\tfont-size: 16px !important;\r\n\tfont-family: Verdana !important;\r\n\tcolor:#13477d !important;\r\n\tborder-bottom:0px !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157 .wpsm_panel-title a:focus {\r\noutline: 0px !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157 .wpsm_panel-title a:hover, #wpsm_accordion_157 .wpsm_panel-title a:focus {\r\n\tcolor:#13477d !important;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157 .acc-a{\r\n\tcolor: #13477d !important;\r\n\tbackground-color:#e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tborder-color: #ddd;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157 .wpsm_panel-default > .wpsm_panel-heading{\r\n\tcolor: #13477d !important;\r\n\tbackground-color: #e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tborder-color: #e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tborder-top-left-radius: 0px;\r\n\tborder-top-right-radius: 0px;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157 .wpsm_panel-default {\r\n\t\tborder:1px solid transparent !important;\r\n\t}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157 {\r\n\tmargin-bottom: 20px;\r\n\toverflow: hidden;\r\n\tfloat: none;\r\n\twidth: 100%;\r\n\tdisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157 .ac_title_class{\r\n\tdisplay: block;\r\n\tpadding-top: 12px;\r\n\tpadding-bottom: 12px;\r\n\tpadding-left: 15px;\r\n\tpadding-right: 15px;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157  .wpsm_panel {\r\n\toverflow:hidden;\r\n\t-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, .05);\r\n\tbox-shadow: 0 0px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, .05);\r\n\t\tborder-radius: 4px;\r\n\t}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157  .wpsm_panel + .wpsm_panel {\r\n\t\tmargin-top: 5px;\r\n\t}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157  .wpsm_panel-body{\r\n\tbackground-color:#ffffff !important;\r\n\tcolor:#000000 !important;\r\n\tborder-top-color: #e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tfont-size:14px !important;\r\n\tfont-family: Verdana !important;\r\n\toverflow: hidden;\r\n\t\tborder: 2px solid transparent !important;\r\n\t}\r\n\r\n#wpsm_accordion_157 .ac_open_cl_icon{\r\n\tbackground-color:#e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tcolor: #13477d !important;\r\n\tfloat:right !important;\r\n\tpadding-top: 12px !important;\r\n\tpadding-bottom: 12px !important;\r\n\tline-height: 1.0 !important;\r\n\tpadding-left: 15px !important;\r\n\tpadding-right: 15px !important;\r\n\tdisplay: inline-block !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<\/style>\t\r\n\t\t\t<\/style>\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-group\" id=\"wpsm_accordion_157\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel Start -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel wpsm_panel-default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <h4 class=\"wpsm_panel-title\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a  class=\"\"  data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#wpsm_accordion_157 \" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-target=\"#ac_157_collapse1\" onclick=\"do_resize()\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ac_title_class\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"margin-right:6px;\" class=\"fa fa-angle-down\"><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLee, C., Dickerson, J. &amp; Winslow, J.

They also highly valued detailed instructions on completing assignments and clearly organized instructional content materials.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/anitacrawley.net\/Resources\/Articles\/Ausburn.pdf\">Click here to access the Ausburn article<\/a>.\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel End -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n\t\r\n\t\tfunction do_resize(){\r\n\r\n\t\t\tvar width=jQuery( '.wpsm_panel .wpsm_panel-body iframe' ).width();\r\n\t\t\tvar height=jQuery( '.wpsm_panel .wpsm_panel-body iframe' ).height();\r\n\r\n\t\t\tvar toggleSize = true;\r\n\t\t\tjQuery('iframe').animate({\r\n\t\t\t    width: toggleSize ? width : 640,\r\n\t\t\t    height: toggleSize ? height : 360\r\n\t\t\t  }, 250);\r\n\r\n\t\t\t  toggleSize = !toggleSize;\r\n\t\t}\r\n\t\t\r\n<\/script>\t\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 style=\"margin-bottom:20px;display:block;width:100%;margin-top:10px\">Learning Outcomes <\/h3>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<style>\r\n\t\t\t\t<style>\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156 .wpsm_panel-heading{\r\n\tpadding:0px !important;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156 .wpsm_panel-title {\r\n\tmargin:0px !important; \r\n\ttext-transform:none !important;\r\n\tline-height: 1 !important;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156 .wpsm_panel-title a{\r\n\ttext-decoration:none;\r\n\toverflow:hidden;\r\n\tdisplay:block;\r\n\tpadding:0px;\r\n\tfont-size: 16px !important;\r\n\tfont-family: Verdana !important;\r\n\tcolor:#13477d !important;\r\n\tborder-bottom:0px !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156 .wpsm_panel-title a:focus {\r\noutline: 0px !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156 .wpsm_panel-title a:hover, #wpsm_accordion_156 .wpsm_panel-title a:focus {\r\n\tcolor:#13477d !important;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156 .acc-a{\r\n\tcolor: #13477d !important;\r\n\tbackground-color:#e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tborder-color: #ddd;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156 .wpsm_panel-default > .wpsm_panel-heading{\r\n\tcolor: #13477d !important;\r\n\tbackground-color: #e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tborder-color: #e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tborder-top-left-radius: 0px;\r\n\tborder-top-right-radius: 0px;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156 .wpsm_panel-default {\r\n\t\tborder:1px solid transparent !important;\r\n\t}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156 {\r\n\tmargin-bottom: 20px;\r\n\toverflow: hidden;\r\n\tfloat: none;\r\n\twidth: 100%;\r\n\tdisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156 .ac_title_class{\r\n\tdisplay: block;\r\n\tpadding-top: 12px;\r\n\tpadding-bottom: 12px;\r\n\tpadding-left: 15px;\r\n\tpadding-right: 15px;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156  .wpsm_panel {\r\n\toverflow:hidden;\r\n\t-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, .05);\r\n\tbox-shadow: 0 0px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, .05);\r\n\t\tborder-radius: 4px;\r\n\t}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156  .wpsm_panel + .wpsm_panel {\r\n\t\tmargin-top: 5px;\r\n\t}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156  .wpsm_panel-body{\r\n\tbackground-color:#ffffff !important;\r\n\tcolor:#000000 !important;\r\n\tborder-top-color: #e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tfont-size:14px !important;\r\n\tfont-family: Verdana !important;\r\n\toverflow: hidden;\r\n\t\tborder: 2px solid transparent !important;\r\n\t}\r\n\r\n#wpsm_accordion_156 .ac_open_cl_icon{\r\n\tbackground-color:#e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tcolor: #13477d !important;\r\n\tfloat:right !important;\r\n\tpadding-top: 12px !important;\r\n\tpadding-bottom: 12px !important;\r\n\tline-height: 1.0 !important;\r\n\tpadding-left: 15px !important;\r\n\tpadding-right: 15px !important;\r\n\tdisplay: inline-block !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<\/style>\t\r\n\t\t\t<\/style>\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-group\" id=\"wpsm_accordion_156\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel Start -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel wpsm_panel-default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <h4 class=\"wpsm_panel-title\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a  class=\"\"  data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#wpsm_accordion_156 \" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-target=\"#ac_156_collapse1\" onclick=\"do_resize()\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ac_title_class\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"margin-right:6px;\" class=\"fa fa-angle-down\"><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAdam, S.

Strong learning outcomes help instructors visualize how components of the curriculum and syllabus fit together. They help ensure consistency of delivery across courses and programs by increasing the comparability of standards and qualifications, displaying credibility to outside viewers of the course, and acting as points of reference for establishing programmatic standards. Strong learning outcomes also help students by providing a comprehensive set of actions that outline exactly what they will be able to achieve after successful completion of the course. This type of clarity acts as a roadmap to students as they choose a course, module or program. Lastly, strong learning outcomes can improve the transparency of course achievements, which helps students communicate their learning and skills with future institutions or employers. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ehea.info\/media.ehea.info\/file\/Learning_Outcomes_Edinburgh_2004\/76\/8\/040620LEARNING_OUTCOMES-Adams_577768.pdf\">Click here to access the Adams article<\/a>.\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel End -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel Start -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel wpsm_panel-default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <h4 class=\"wpsm_panel-title\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a  class=\"collapsed\"  data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#wpsm_accordion_156 \" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-target=\"#ac_156_collapse2\" onclick=\"do_resize()\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ac_title_class\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"margin-right:6px;\" class=\"fa fa-angle-down\"><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKennedy, D., Hyland, A., &amp; Ryan, N.

Perceived support was significantly related to students\u2019 overall satisfaction in the online course. The authors conclude that supporting student learning through guidance of support services in an online course optimizes student learning experiences.

Asynchronous, online discussions are one of the most common components of online courses. This meta analysis provides information about the best practices for facilitating successful online discussions. Results imply that instructors should be willing to create a flexible model for the incorporation of different types of discussion questions, rather than relying on pre-printed discussion questions listed in the textbook. Several approaches can be used to address procrastination including offering motivational techniques, scaffolding establishing deadlines, providing prompt feedback, and centering discussion questions on interesting topics or large projects. Research also suggests that instructors can foster the skill of reflection by developing higher level focus questions, guiding students in reflective practice at the beginning of the course, and utilizing a variety of discussion formats to illicit not only reflection but critical thinking and thoughtful interaction as well. <a href=\"https:\/\/files.eric.ed.gov\/fulltext\/EJ1117812.pdf\">Click here to access the Woods &amp; Bliss article<\/a>.\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel End -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel Start -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel wpsm_panel-default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <h4 class=\"wpsm_panel-title\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a  class=\"collapsed\"  data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#wpsm_accordion_155 \" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-target=\"#ac_155_collapse3\" onclick=\"do_resize()\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ac_title_class\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"margin-right:6px;\" class=\"fa fa-angle-down\"><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLederman, D.

Findings suggest that student satisfaction with remote learning was higher when their courses incorporated more best practices. Over 1,000 undergraduate students and 4,000 instructors from 1,500 colleges nationwide completed the survey. Data shows that student satisfaction steadily increased with the number of best practices an instructor implemented in their online course. When asked to cite which aspects of their remote experience negatively impacted their learning, students were most likely to cite a lack of interactivity and opportunities to collaborate, demonstrating that interactivity and collaboration are crucial in the design of an online course. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insidehighered.com\/digital-learning\/article\/2020\/07\/08\/what-kept-students-studying-remotely-satisfied-spring-well\">Click here to access the Lederman article<\/a>.\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel End -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel Start -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel wpsm_panel-default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <h4 class=\"wpsm_panel-title\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a  class=\"collapsed\"  data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#wpsm_accordion_155 \" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-target=\"#ac_155_collapse4\" onclick=\"do_resize()\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ac_title_class\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"margin-right:6px;\" class=\"fa fa-angle-down\"><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLeopp, E.

Student responses focused heavily on the organization of their LMS course site as a crucial component in their remote learning success. Even when students were asked to comment on faculty teaching strategies for remote learning, students brought up the organization of the LMS. Overall, students asked for a simple and well-organized LMS course site. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facultyfocus.com\/articles\/online-education\/online-course-design-and-preparation\/what-students-want-a-simple-navigable-lms-course-design\/\">Click here to access the Leopp article<\/a>.\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel End -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n\t\r\n\t\tfunction do_resize(){\r\n\r\n\t\t\tvar width=jQuery( '.wpsm_panel .wpsm_panel-body iframe' ).width();\r\n\t\t\tvar height=jQuery( '.wpsm_panel .wpsm_panel-body iframe' ).height();\r\n\r\n\t\t\tvar toggleSize = true;\r\n\t\t\tjQuery('iframe').animate({\r\n\t\t\t    width: toggleSize ? width : 640,\r\n\t\t\t    height: toggleSize ? height : 360\r\n\t\t\t  }, 250);\r\n\r\n\t\t\t  toggleSize = !toggleSize;\r\n\t\t}\r\n\t\t\r\n<\/script>\t\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 style=\"margin-bottom:20px;display:block;width:100%;margin-top:10px\">Assessments and Grading <\/h3>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<style>\r\n\t\t\t\t<style>\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154 .wpsm_panel-heading{\r\n\tpadding:0px !important;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154 .wpsm_panel-title {\r\n\tmargin:0px !important; \r\n\ttext-transform:none !important;\r\n\tline-height: 1 !important;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154 .wpsm_panel-title a{\r\n\ttext-decoration:none;\r\n\toverflow:hidden;\r\n\tdisplay:block;\r\n\tpadding:0px;\r\n\tfont-size: 16px !important;\r\n\tfont-family: Verdana !important;\r\n\tcolor:#13477d !important;\r\n\tborder-bottom:0px !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154 .wpsm_panel-title a:focus {\r\noutline: 0px !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154 .wpsm_panel-title a:hover, #wpsm_accordion_154 .wpsm_panel-title a:focus {\r\n\tcolor:#13477d !important;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154 .acc-a{\r\n\tcolor: #13477d !important;\r\n\tbackground-color:#e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tborder-color: #ddd;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154 .wpsm_panel-default > .wpsm_panel-heading{\r\n\tcolor: #13477d !important;\r\n\tbackground-color: #e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tborder-color: #e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tborder-top-left-radius: 0px;\r\n\tborder-top-right-radius: 0px;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154 .wpsm_panel-default {\r\n\t\tborder:1px solid transparent !important;\r\n\t}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154 {\r\n\tmargin-bottom: 20px;\r\n\toverflow: hidden;\r\n\tfloat: none;\r\n\twidth: 100%;\r\n\tdisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154 .ac_title_class{\r\n\tdisplay: block;\r\n\tpadding-top: 12px;\r\n\tpadding-bottom: 12px;\r\n\tpadding-left: 15px;\r\n\tpadding-right: 15px;\r\n}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154  .wpsm_panel {\r\n\toverflow:hidden;\r\n\t-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, .05);\r\n\tbox-shadow: 0 0px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, .05);\r\n\t\tborder-radius: 4px;\r\n\t}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154  .wpsm_panel + .wpsm_panel {\r\n\t\tmargin-top: 5px;\r\n\t}\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154  .wpsm_panel-body{\r\n\tbackground-color:#ffffff !important;\r\n\tcolor:#000000 !important;\r\n\tborder-top-color: #e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tfont-size:14px !important;\r\n\tfont-family: Verdana !important;\r\n\toverflow: hidden;\r\n\t\tborder: 2px solid transparent !important;\r\n\t}\r\n\r\n#wpsm_accordion_154 .ac_open_cl_icon{\r\n\tbackground-color:#e8e8e8 !important;\r\n\tcolor: #13477d !important;\r\n\tfloat:right !important;\r\n\tpadding-top: 12px !important;\r\n\tpadding-bottom: 12px !important;\r\n\tline-height: 1.0 !important;\r\n\tpadding-left: 15px !important;\r\n\tpadding-right: 15px !important;\r\n\tdisplay: inline-block !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<\/style>\t\r\n\t\t\t<\/style>\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-group\" id=\"wpsm_accordion_154\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel Start -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel wpsm_panel-default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <h4 class=\"wpsm_panel-title\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a  class=\"\"  data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#wpsm_accordion_154 \" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-target=\"#ac_154_collapse1\" onclick=\"do_resize()\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ac_title_class\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"margin-right:6px;\" class=\"fa fa-angle-down\"><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBiggs, J.

The authors conclude that supporting student learning through guidance of support services in an online course optimizes student learning experiences.

Because of the continued online enrollment growth, higher educational institutions must prepare faculty throughout their teaching career for learning theory, technical expertise, and pedagogical shifts for teaching in the online environment. This study presents best practices for professional development for faculty teaching online. The raw data yielded 41 best practices for professional development considerations, 16 organizational\/institutional best practices, and 11 online classroom contextual best practices. For the professional development best practices, 33 were from the original survey and 8 were suggested by the expert panel. This study identified best practices for providing professional development for online faculty members through a teaching and learning center. This research does not provide evidence based standards; each best practice should be further explored to determine impact and effectiveness. <a href=\"https:\/\/files.eric.ed.gov\/fulltext\/EJ1163625.pdf\">Click here to access the Coswatte &amp; Shelton article<\/a>.\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel End -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n\t\r\n\t\tfunction do_resize(){\r\n\r\n\t\t\tvar width=jQuery( '.wpsm_panel .wpsm_panel-body iframe' ).width();\r\n\t\t\tvar height=jQuery( '.wpsm_panel .wpsm_panel-body iframe' ).height();\r\n\r\n\t\t\tvar toggleSize = true;\r\n\t\t\tjQuery('iframe').animate({\r\n\t\t\t    width: toggleSize ? width : 640,\r\n\t\t\t    height: toggleSize ? height : 360\r\n\t\t\t  }, 250);\r\n\r\n\t\t\t  toggleSize = !toggleSize;\r\n\t\t}\r\n\t\t\r\n<\/script>\t\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Webinars<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We are planning an exciting series of EOE webinars for the Spring 2022 semester, presented by the EOE Team.

The EOE initiative uses the Online Course Quality Review Rubric (OSCQR), developed by State University System of New York (2013).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The OSCQR Rubric includes criteria in the following course design areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Course Overview &amp; Introduction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Learning Objectives<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Assessment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instructional Materials<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Learning Activities &amp; Learner Interaction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Course Technology<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Learner Support &amp; Accessibility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/oscqr.suny.edu\/\" style=\"background-color:#961e28;color:#ffffff;border-radius:11px\"> Find out More about the OSCQR rubric <\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Faculty may submit the <a href=\"https:\/\/form.asana.com\/?k=qK_fNlY2WjKUOTsw-i6g_Q&amp;d=1003439336537312\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/form.asana.com\/?k=qK_fNlY2WjKUOTsw-i6g_Q&amp;d=1003439336537312\">EOE Quality Assurance review request<\/a> form to schedule a consultation for a formal course review. During the consultation, an instructional designer will evaluate the course using the EOE QA checklist and provide tailored recommendations to enhance course design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/form.asana.com\/?k=qK_fNlY2WjKUOTsw-i6g_Q&amp;d=1003439336537312\" style=\"border-radius:11px;color:#ffffff;background-color:#961e28\">Request a Review<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>To recognize the accomplishment of designing or revising a course to meet the EOE standards, an online course that successfully aligns with the standards of the EOE initiative will earn a Digital Badge of Eagle Online Excellence. There are two options for distinction available to AU faculty as part of the EOE initiative:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Silver (meeting all OSCQR &#8220;essential&#8221; criteria)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gold (meeting all OSCQR criteria at a threshold of 80%).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This badge is a signal to your students and others in the AU community that your course meets the standard for a high-quality online course and follows best practices in online course design. The badge can be posted directly into a course\u2019s syllabus, on your Canvas course site, and on your AU faculty profile. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"975\" src=\"https:\/\/edspace.american.edu\/eoe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2269\/2025\/05\/2025-version-1-1024x975.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/edspace.american.edu\/eoe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2269\/2025\/05\/2025-version-1-1024x975.png 1024w, https:\/\/edspace.american.edu\/eoe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2269\/2025\/05\/2025-version-1-300x286.png 300w, https:\/\/edspace.american.edu\/eoe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2269\/2025\/05\/2025-version-1-768x732.png 768w, https:\/\/edspace.american.edu\/eoe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2269\/2025\/05\/2025-version-1-1536x1463.png 1536w, https:\/\/edspace.american.edu\/eoe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2269\/2025\/05\/2025-version-1-1232x1173.png 1232w, https:\/\/edspace.american.edu\/eoe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2269\/2025\/05\/2025-version-1-1134x1080.png 1134w, https:\/\/edspace.american.edu\/eoe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2269\/2025\/05\/2025-version-1.png 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left\">Benefits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>High-quality course design results in engaging and effective online learning experiences that directly impact students, faculty, and programs. By aligning courses to EOE standards, faculty support intentional design choices and think of the course from a student\u2019s perspective. In this manner, faculty can create an evidence-based process for building, maintaining, and guaranteeing course and learning quality. When courses meet the standards set out by the EOE initiative, faculty and programs can easily showcase the consistent quality they are providing for their students online.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information about how the standards in EOE and similar quality design rubrics can impact teaching and student success, <a href=\"https:\/\/edspace.american.edu\/eoe\/professional-development\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/edspace.american.edu\/eoe\/professional-development\/\">please&nbsp;take a look at&nbsp;our literature review<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Criteria &amp; Review Process The Online Course Quality Review Rubric is the core of the Eagle Online Excellence (EOE) initiative.
