Exemplary Course Program Cohort
Attend a 4-Week Cohort Webinar Series to learn about Exemplary Course design.
Welcome to the Exemplary Course Program Cohort Registration!
About the webinar
The Exemplary Course Program began in 2000 with the goal of identifying and disseminating best practices for designing high quality courses. The Exemplary Course Program Rubric is offered under a Creative Commons license, and we encourage you to reuse it as part of your own discussions on quality course design.
Blackboard Learn AND Open LMS clients can submit their courses any time on or before April 1, 2020 for review, and there is no charge for participation. Submission windows will re-open August 1, 2020.
The Exemplary Course Program
Join us as we discuss key characteristics of high-quality courses within the framework of Course Design, Interaction and Collaboration, Assessment, and Learner Support! Together we will review the updated Exemplary Course Program Rubric and demonstrate a sample review of selected standards within each rubric category.
Our goal is for you to walk away feeling confident in your ability to self-assess your own course. We also invite you to sign up to serve as a peer-reviewer of courses submitted to the Exemplary Course Program.
Pacific and Latin America and Caribbean clients will be scheduled at a later date.
