IMPROVING YOUR ONLINE CLASS (4 CREDITS): The “Improving Your Online Course” workshop explores the Quality Matters (QM) Rubric and provides a framework to improve the quality of online courses. Participants use the QM Rubric to review their own courses and develop a course improvement plan. The content is based on the 21 essential Specific Review Standards of the Quality Matters Rubric. Participants come away with a plan for course improvement, so to enroll in the workshop, a pre-developed online course is required. The course runs for about two weeks, is expected to take about 8-10 hours per week to complete, and is completed fully online. The course is offered through the national non-profit Quality Matters in collaboration with the Washington State Board of Community and Technical Colleges, and course completion is recognized at colleges across the country. Deliverables: Plan of Improvement for your online course, Certificate of Completion.
