Distance Course Review

Online Course Review

Online Course Review
Each online course at Creighton University undergoes a review process examining the design of the course.  The purpose of the review process is to assure congruence with best practices for online course design.  The review process does not include review of course content.  A rubric based on nationally recognized criteria for distance course design is used.  The process for online course review is outlined in the table below.  Copies of the rubric are available by contacting the Center for Faculty Excellence.
