WORKSHOP POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
Meeting Times – Individual and Group During the design phase, we will meet for THREE 1 ½ hour sessions. During the development phase, we will meet for FOUR 1 ½ hour sessions. Participants must attend these required sessions. These sessions will be a time for sharing ideas and information with other participants in the workshop. I understand that emergency situations may require a participant to miss a session. In this case, the participant is responsible for taking the initiative to get back on track with the rest of the class Individual sessions can also be scheduled at the request of the participant. The individual meetings can be held online using Blackboard or face-to-face. Participation Policy Please actively participate in the online learning process and complete all Learning Tasks on time as it is critical to the success of your online course. Keep in mind that the goal is that once the development process is finished, you will more than likely be 95% finished with your course. The other 5% is “wiggle room” for you to update and make last minute changes before the semester begins. Cheating/Plagiarism Policy All participants are expected to demonstrate academic integrity as they design their courses. The definition of academic integrity for this course requires that participants submit their own work. For this class, it is permissible to assist co-workers in general discussions of techniques. General advice and interaction among classmates are encouraged. Participants are welcome to share ideas, formats, and teaching methods with the consent of their fellow faculty member. Code of Student Conduct Each participant is responsible for adhering to the Code of Student Conduct as stated in the college catalog. All participants are expected to show honesty and integrity in the classroom including consideration for other participants and the instructor. On-Going Assessment for Learning Activities The goal of the workshop is for faculty to develop the skills needed to effectively teach online or in a blended learning model. For this purpose, we will use the following mastery assessment scale for all learning tasks:
• • •
2 points = Learning Activities meets the learning outcomes 1 point = Learning Activities are developing towards the learning outcomes 0 point = Learning Activities are incomplete
3
The mastery assessment scale was developed through the consultation with and approval by Moraine Valley faculty who has completed previous iterations of this workshop. The goal offered through the mastery scale affords participants the opportunity to always meet their learning outcomes. If a activity does not meet learning outcomes, it will be returned to the participant for revision until the learning outcome has been achieved.
