Make your online courses shine
Design can make or break online-only or blended courses. The pitfalls of a poorly designed course can stymie interaction, impede learning and ruin the experience for students and faculty. And with their increasing popularity, getting courses right the first time is more important than ever. The Quality Matters™ Rubric is a peer-reviewed standard for online course design. After this 90-minute video online seminar you’ll be able to apply proven, nationally-respected techniques to your online courses.


How Quality Matters’ Updated Standards Improve Online Courses provides you with concrete design strategies from the latest 2008-2010 Rubric, immediately applicable to existing or future courses.

Ronald Legon is Executive Director of The Quality Matters Program, a faculty-centered peer review process designed to certify the quality of online courses. Legon is experienced as an administrator, serving as provost at the University of Baltimore for more than a decade. He is also a pioneer in the field of online courses, helping to launch the first AACSB-accredited online MBA program.
