Track 4: Online & Hybrid Course Development Practicum

Ø  Encompasses the online and hybrid course development process which includes:

Ø  Application for online or hybrid course development (Form located on pages 2-3).

Ø  Team development practicum (TPACK Model) supports participants—we’re here to support you!

Ø  Course review using an online quality rubric prior to delivery.

Ø  Follow-up during first semester of delivery.

Ø  Participants are required to complete Tracks 1 and 2, ETOM Online Instructor Training Certificate, or have equivalent experience prior to developing an online/hybrid course. It is highly recommended that they also complete Track 3 or have related experience; however, it can be completed in conjunction with Track 4.

Ø  Application for development: Submit at least 1.5 semesters prior to expected delivery.

Ø  Participants will complete the NMC Online/Hybrid Course Development Request form. NOTE: If you do not meet any of the criteria for new online/hybrid courses, contact your Academic Chair to discuss the viability of submission.

Ø  The form is submitted to ESIMT, through the Academic Area Chair, and if approved for development, the following steps take place.

Ø  Course development practicum: Requires at least one semester of development time or concentrated development time if a shorter timeline is required. Prerequisites include teachingSOLUTIONS Tracks 1 & 2, ETOM Online Instructor Training Certification, or agreed upon equivalent experience/training through discussion with an NMC Instructional Designer. Track 3 of teachingSOLUTIONS can be completed in conjunction with Track 4 or before.

Ø  It’s a team support process. Participants collaborate with Educational Media Technologies support team (instructional designer and technology specialists) to clarify needs, establish timeline with milestones, and share knowledge (TPaCK Model) to develop a quality online/hybrid course prior to the semester scheduled for delivery.

Ø  T: Learn: Moodle course tools and other related technologies that fulfill the content and pedagogical needs.

Ø  P: Seek answers to: How do I develop an online or hybrid course that follows a Quality Assurance Rubric, focusing on sound instructional design to meet desired course outcomes and student needs?

Ø  C: Identify: What content do I have? What needs to be developed for the delivery type? How do I develop the course activities, assignments, and assessments into an effective, quality course while providing necessary information and fulfilling expectations for successful student learning to occur?

Ø  Course review prior to delivery: Based on a Quality Assurance Rubric.

Ø  Participants have their course reviewed by a team comprising of peer reviewers and instructional designer to gain valuable feedback for improvement needs and possibilities to consider in the future.

Ø  The Quality Assurance Rubric encompasses criteria from the different TPaCK perspectives.

Ø  Follow-up: Takes place during first semester of delivery/

Ø  Participants continue to communicate with development team periodically to ensure any issues, questions, or ideas are addressed and explored for continuous improvement.
