How to Make Your Course QM Awesome: Creative Quality Matters Applications

Description

This presentation will show how three QM Certified courses in three different disciplines used unique and engaging strategies to meet the QM Standards.  The presenters will discuss their use of modular course design, and the implementation of module learning guides that show alignment of unit/module learning outcomes, course learning outcomes, and program learning outcomes for all course activities and assessments.

The presentation will include demonstrations of SoftChalk as a module learning guide for student self-assessments, and as a tool to create engaging activities in an online course.  The presenters will showcase the use of Screen-Cast-O-Matic for course overviews, demonstrations, and presentations for a variety of course formats, including face-to-face, blended, and online teaching.  

Participants will see how the presenters have set up Google Drive accounts to create documents, forms, interactive assignments, and more to meet the QM Standards in our courses.  We will also demonstrate how using these tools have increased our student interaction, small group collaborations, as well as student engagement and success within these courses.  Participants will be prepared to create their own unique and engaging course materials with the information presented in this session.
