I have developed and delivered in-house qualification training to expand online and blended course offerings. Both training programs used ADDIE and backwards course design. The 6-week blended program guided faculty towards a flipped classroom approach, whereas the online training program lasted 15 weeks and guided faculty to design their online courses and learn the necessary pedagogy to teach online. I collaborated with colleagues to develop the quality assurance checklist and review process for new online courses, modeled to an extent after the Quality Matters rubric.
Emphasis on:
Adult learning theory
ADDIE and backward course design
Outcome-based assessments
Original multimedia content creation
Universal Design for Learning
Active and cooperative learning opportunities
This is an overview video from Week 2 of the online training that emphasizes the importance of quality assurance in the virtual realm.
This is an assignment I developed for the blended qualification training in which faculty access and review their course outcomes and then use backwards design to map their activities and assessments in accordance with the learning outcomes.
Below is an interactive self-assessment activity I created for the online training that allows participants to check their understanding of the content for the week. This was designed using the free open resource H5P.org. Feel free to test your own knowledge and see how engaging H5P can be!
