Online Course Development and Review

This document is intended to provide guidance for developing online courses. There are four sections: Course Design/Development/Review, Principles of Good Practice, Course Equivalency form, and Course Reviewer Checklist.

The Course Design/Development/Review

This section is completed by the individual responsible for the course.

This section is intended to be used to review existing online courses; and as a guideline for developing new online courses.

The DLRC reviews the form and makes recommendations as necessary.

The Principles of Good Practice

This section is completed by the individual responsible for the course.

This section provides a checklist typically used by HLC to assess if online courses meet minimum educational standards. Designers/Developers are encouraged to use this checklist as they review their existing online courses, and/or create online courses. Eventually, the DLRC may incorporate this checklist into the Course Reviewer Checklist.

The Course Equivalency Form

This section is completed by the Program Chair and/or Department Chair for the course, and approved/signed by the Department Chair.

This form verifies that the online course meets the same rigorous standards as its comparable residence course.

The Course Reviewer Checklist

This section is completed by Peer Reviewers designated by the Distance Learning Review Committee and/or Distance Learning Coordinator (Director of Academic Technology).

This section is derived from the Quality Matters Rubric and the Oklahoma Online Course Review Checklist, and incorporates elements from the previous sections as well.

Departments designing and developing online courses should use this policy as their guideline.
The DLRC should review at least one online course per department (offering online courses) using this Online Course Development and Review policy.
The VPAA and Director of Distance Learning Technology should provide any additional guidance, as well as communicate institutional requirements to all faculty.
