Have you heard about Quality Matters? The Quality Matters Standards for Online & Blended Courses is an evidence-based toolset and process for continuous improvement in online and blended courses.
From Tuesday, August 10 through Monday, August 23, we will be running the Applying the Quality Matters Rubric (APPQMR) workshop and all interested Health Sciences faculty and staff are invited to participate. This is a two-week asynchronous online workshop offered through QM’s learning management system. The workshop provides:
- An introduction to QM’s quality assurance approach, used by colleges and universities nationwide
- Practice applying the QM rubric to a demonstration course
- An introduction to the concept of alignment
- The first step to becoming a QM peer reviewer
This course is especially recommended for anyone who will be responsible for building or re-designing online or blended courses. The workshop activities take approximately 6-8 hours per week to complete. The cost will be covered by the Health Sciences Dean’s Office.
