QUALITY

HIG

HLIG

HTS


Recommendation: The Quality Course Review should be mandatory for every distance course: online (IN), hybrid (HY), and teleweb (TW).

• New course/Division Masters be submitted for QCR –Quality Course Review.

• Division Directors/delegator will take a lead in the submission process

• QCR in conjunction with areas/divisions. • CPCC Quality Course Review rubric is thorough, effective and

does not need immediate modifications

Opportunities Promotion/application checklist/

annotated rubricVisibility – best practicesAvailability of optionso Face-to-face o On-demand options

HIG

HLIG

HTS


Recommends: an eLearning Liaison position

• A pilot process for Division’s Quality Course Review. This review process includes the participation of an eLearning Liaison as one of the reviewers.

• eLearning Liaison would be an assigned instructor by the Division who would be compensated for their additional duties by the way of re-assigned time or a stipend).

• Also recommended by Strategic Plan

Recommends:

• The implementation of guidelines for appropriate use of master courses or QCR reviewed courses from another instructors. (A draft document was developed by eLearning and this subcommittee.)

LEARNING SYSTEMS - LMS / CMS

Evaluating effectiveness of the current Learning Management Systems (LMSs) at CPCC: Blackboard and Moodle

Researching resources that would need to be in place for hypothetical migration from Blackboard to Moodle.

HIG

HLIG

HTS


Environmental Survey: • Identifying faculty preferences for the online teaching environment • Identifying student preferences for online learning environment • Evaluate the effectiveness of existing learning systems to the needs

of our community Timeline Considerations: The subcommittee recommends that no significant transitions or migrations to alternative or secondary LMS/CMS platforms occur before the upcoming SACS visitation. Learning Systems: A migration from Blackboard to Moodle or Moodle to other platforms is not seamless, and requires an investment. At this time, the subcommittee does not support the introduction of additional LMS.
