Attribute Information

The objectives of this article were to determine: 1) students' preferences for college course attributes; and 2) how the amount of course attribute information impacts enrollment. Results indicate students had the highest preferences for face-to-face (F2F) courses offered late morning and early afternoon and two to three days per week. Students selected online over F2F courses depending on course makeup; for example, course topic, online course design technology, and when the F2F version was offered. Additionally, students selected online courses more frequently when additional online course attribute information was available during course selection.

Humanities Curriculum

This article explores the implications of presenting a medical humanities curriculum in a virtual format, using as a model a fully online humanities course taught in both traditional 15-week and accelerated 5-week formats. The course explores narrative competency and allows baccalaureate students to deepen their practical skills with increased awareness of narrative constructions. The online course design fosters growth in many areas of communication that have otherwise been absent in face-to-face courses taught by this educator. In the virtual format, students showed increased investment in the course content and an openness to communicating their experience as well as to critically challenging their colleagues on narrative-based dilemmas, such as those centered around building empathy, remaining nonjudgmental when challenged with ethical dilemmas, and awareness of signs within themselves of disengagement and burnout.

Quality Matters

One of the dilemmas faced by today’s faculty is assuring quality in online courses. As one solution to that dilemma, Quality Matters (QM), a program of MarylandOnline, built a rubric of design standards informed by existing research literature and best practices. The rubric was implemented within a faculty-centred, peer review process in which colleagues share their expertise to facilitate course design improvements and to achieve an established level of quality in online course design. This article will describe the basic tenets and processes of QM as an inter-institutional quality assurance program for online learning.

Online Course Development

In spite of online teaching having existed for almost two decades, many courses still mirror the traditional objectivist classroom. However, the literature clearly validates that a different approach must be taken for online course design that includes a pedagogical shift to constructivist methods that encourage transference of learning such as mastery learning, problem-based and project-based learning, authentic learning and assessment, and collaboration. This chapter presents elements of constructivist course design for increased online student engagement that can support online student success.
