We are now in our fourth year of offering this program and have developed a number of practices that allow us to be flexible, dynamic, and data-driven. The key tenets of success in POMP pull from the CVC rubric:
Authentic assessment throughout our courses
Engaging and vibrant student interactions
Using principles of Universal Design for Learning in how we design and present course content
Accessibility for all
Through cohorts, we created an interdisciplinary community of practice around online education through one-to-one mentorship, direct accessibility support, and facilitator coaching that continues in post-programming professional development.
4-6 week program
Synchronous meetings for lecture around Sections A-C
Asynchronous course alignment
Support from mentors - not always aligned themselves
8 week program
Coaching model
Focus: Community, Equity, Accessibility
Synchronous support & application
Asynchronous course study & review
Self-assessment and reflection as part of the process
Most courses were stuck in limbo after POMP. Redesigned program in 2021, added extra reviewer training, templates, "scrubbing"... which led to 30 courses moving quickly through alignment!
