SUMMARY:Getting Started with Quality Matters
DESCRIPTION:Quality Matters began with a small group of Maryland colleagues who were trying to solve a common problem among institutions: how do we measure and guarantee the quality of a course? This question became important because many institutions were trying to create a system where they could share available seats in their online courses with other institutions. Because of this\, they worked to create courses of quality for their students\, regardless of where the course originated. In 2003\, the colleagues created the Quality Matters program\, which would create a scalable process for course quality assurance.  \nIn this session\, participants will be introduced to Quality Matters and how it can be helpful in effective course development. Participants will also look at some of the rubrics that are central to Quality Matters implementation.   \n  \n  \nSession Objectives:  \n\nProvide background and overview of Quality Matters  \nReview Quality Matters rubrics for higher education \nDescribe the benefits of using Quality Matters for course quality and development \n\n

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: New School Year\, New You: Strategies for Managing Stress\, Exhaustion\, and Burnout for Pandemic Fatigued and Weary Online Instructors
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is part of our OLC Innovate 2021 Best-in-Track (Leadership and Advocacy) summer webinar series! \nFor some instructors\, the pandemic events of 2020 and 2021 brought new challenges to teaching and learning\, alongside an imbalance in routines\, priorities\, and self-care habits. Many Instructors found themselves buried under grading and content creation\, all while managing multiple other personal and professional priorities. As we embark on a new school year\, join us for an engaging and collaborative group conversation to identify strategies for managing stress\, identifying outlets for self-care\, and reflecting on the nuggets of strength\, grace\, and hope that helped us persist through the worst of the pandemic. \nIn this honest\, personal\, informative\, and engaged conversation session\, participants will explore their self-care routines and strategies (or lack thereof) and how they might find new ways to build self-care practices and strategies into their daily practices moving forward. Let’s work together to create individualized plans to weather whatever challenges the new school year brings. \nBy participating in this webinar\, you will… \n\nIdentify at least one strategy you use to infuse self-care into your daily routine.\nIdentify at least one person you will actively build a network with and together further support and mentor one another to address burnout\, fatigue\, and self-care.\nDiscuss strategies for rewriting one’s fatigue\, burnout\, and stress dialogue.\nIdentify possible teaching-focused strategies that could reduce stress\, fatigue\, and burnout.\n\nPlease note: This webinar will NOT be recorded in order to encourage and protect candid sharing from participants in a safe space.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Transforming Universities with Digital Distance Education - The Future of Formal Learning
DESCRIPTION:When we consider how to transform universities with distance education\, we are really pondering the future of formal learning itself. \nHow can we leverage the opportunities of emerging technology and new approaches to learning and skills to make higher education more affordable and relevant? What have we learned in the past decade about scale\, inclusion and equity — and how do we keep building momentum to build back better after the pandemic? \nThis interactive webinar explores the key challenges of the moment\, what they mean for higher education\, the potential for digital technologies\, what’s getting in the way of transformation\, and the critical pieces that must be in place for change to happen. \nYou will come away with a better understanding of: \n\nThe barriers to change and development in higher education\nThe opportunities right now for change and development\nThe ways in which technology and organizational redesign can achieve scale\nThe limitations imposed by current operational models and what needs to change to achieve equity of access\n\nTags: Transformation \nHost:\nDr. Mark Nichols \nExecutive Director of Learning Design & Development at Open Polytechnic in New Zealand \nDr. Mark Nichols is a well-respected and widely published member of the international Open\, Distance and Flexible Learning (ODFL) community.

SUMMARY:Webinar: The Hybrid Campus: How COVID-19 and Technology are Reshaping Colleges and Universities
DESCRIPTION:As higher education leaders\, decision-makers and governments look to the future of colleges and universities\, the decisions they make now will have impacts on our higher education system for years to come. \nThere is no doubt that the COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on our colleges and universities. But there is more to come. While many seek a return to “normal”\, they will need to adjust to the new normal. What does this involve? \n• A Hybrid Campus: All services\, not just teaching and learning\, will need to be offered online – advising\, careers guidance\, counseling\, registrar\, finance.\n• Rethinking the Academic Portfolio: Teaching and learning will need to be provided in every case as both blended and online – we can no longer assume that social gatherings in large numbers will be possible. We can also better serve a more diverse population through a hybrid approach.\n• Refocus Learning and the Student Experience – focus on lifelong learning\, engaged and authentic learning\, and collaborative learning experience. Intensify project-based learning and strengthen ties with alumni. \nBecoming hybrid will encourage innovation\, increase access\, improve quality and lower costs. It will be a compelling new model for many colleges and universities\, not just in the U.S. and Canada\, but around the world. It requires a real rethinking and reimagining of all workflows\, technology adoption and opportunities at colleges and universities. \nThere are several institutions already exemplifying some key features of this future – University of Central Florida\, Georgia State University – which will be used to illustrate this thinking. \nIn this interactive webinar\, Cole Clark\, Managing Director of Higher Education at Deloitte and author Jeffrey Selingo\, will share their thinking and the findings from some recent explorations. \n  \nKey Takeaways \n• How the academic portfolio will be reshaped by a shift to the hybrid campus.\n• What the hybrid campus means for the college and university

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Moving to Digital: the Faculty Experience in How COVID-19 Brought Us Online (OLC)
DESCRIPTION:In the spring of 2020\, 83% of the faculty surveyed said that they moved a face-to-face course to emergency remote teaching. By the fall of 2020\, 68% of those were still teaching one or more courses fully online\, with 30% more employing some sort of blended methodology. 64% say their current teaching is different or very different in comparison to their teaching pre-pandemic. \nJoin us for this webinar where we’ll chat with Dr. Jeff Seaman – director of Bay View Analytics\, Dr. Nicole Johnson – author of the forthcoming Digital Faculty Report\, and Angela Gunder – OLC’s Chief Academic Officer\, as we discuss some overall data trends in faculty experiences with the shift to remote teaching as well as some of the opportunities and challenges the future offers as a result of this move.

SUMMARY:5 Tips to help Increase Student Morale in a time of Remote Learning
DESCRIPTION:Look…this pandemic has been hard on all of us. Each of us battling our own unique challenges; and\, after 11 months\, it’s no wonder that we’re all exhausted by our “new normal”. Students are no different\, and for many\, morale is low. \n  \nNo surprise to many of us\, EdWeek is reporting that more than 50% of students and 75% of instructors within a remote-learning environment have lower morale than before the pandemic. The U.K. Office of National Statistics reported that more than half of the students surveyed identified that their well-being and mental health has worsened these past 11 months. And\, according to a report by The Jed Foundation\, 63% of students say their mental health is worse since the start of the pandemic. No surprise\, student morale is low. \n  \nIn this session\, we will hone in on five (5) tips to help increase student morale within the online learning environment\, and how sometimes those simple changes can make all the difference. Please also bring your thinking-caps because we will open the floor for the opportunity to share conversations and our own experiences in making the remote learning environment better for students. \n
