Walk through of a QM - friendly LMS course template and checklist

There are several presentations on the topic of course templates. Templates make it much easier for a college to insure many QM standards are met.

The college presenting this session was a private college with a 4-person design team, including the faculty. So , this model is quite different from our instructor driven, solo process . Still, I thought we could take several things from it.

As we move to Canvas, it would not be difficult for us to create a template that folks would have available as an optional starting point. This could be modified by division or department. The template can also be a learning tool for faculty to use as a jumping off point for creating their own course templates. Of course, more
Variation in templates directly counteracts one of the major benefits of a template - consistency.
