The three C's: Collegiality, Collaboration, Credibility

3 Credits a semseter - Peer Review Coordinator

Administration never sees anything (unless they want them to)

Faculty for Faculty not punative, not attached to performance reviews, student evals, or faculty evals--LSC very much wants to keep it that way

debating now about "badge" for doing the peer review, but it would be more instructor based, versus giving to the course

"It's a learning process for everyone involved."  Best practices could be put in a repository

http://blogs.lsc.edu/onlinepeerreview/?p=14 LSC AmyJo's blog about POET (Program for Online Excellence in Teachning)

INTRAinstitutional

This also evaluates stduent interacion, instructor feedback and more (not grades)

Still has rubric that uses yes/no and met/not met ("in progress")

Even with cost of release credits, it's much more cost effective

QM $1000 per review (half goes to reviewers) ($150 per rreivew all to reviewers)

QM certificateion invlad if instructor, syllabus, outcomes etc. change POET if minor/major changes are made in class instructor can have course re-reviewed by lead reviewer (no charge)

QM  oustide quality control: no internal bias POET all internal reviewrs possible conflicts and bias

Materials rstricted and not customizable POET matreials shareable and customizable

QM might not familar with LS POET reviewers are familar with LMS

LSC sees excitement

eLearning budget pays for courses covered

Quality Matters or Homegrown Peer Review: Do we have a choice?

LSC

* First online 1996
* Currently about 30% of credits are online (471 FYE in 2013) 4190 students unduplicated
* Began LSC online Peer Review in 2004 (based on FIPSE Maryland Onnine project)
* over 20 peer reiverws and 70 + course reviewerd, did statewide workshops/trainings
* Joined QM in 2012
* Had first LSC course reviewed evaluted in 2013
* Have two QM peer reviewers on our faculty
* Decided to revise our current peer reivew process in 2013

Lake Superior wants to revert back to focus being on homegrown peer review process

Quality Tied to Instructors
History of training for onine insturcutros has varied (comprehensive summer boot camp)
Did fully online training
Did one-on-one training with IT
Began comprehensive nine training sumer 2012
Started AQUIP project on Comprehensive Teacher Training Fall 2012
Recommending new model of training for onine instructors both new and experienced
Much research suggests student success is affected by both course design and the qulaity of instruction

Program for online excellence in teaching

Part one: adminstrative tool for evaluating Online Courses

* Developed by faculty and dean in 2010

* Implemented in 2011

Part two: Comprehensive Online Instructor Training

* Inludes online teaching pedagogy and specific LMS training

* Eventuarlly will be modular training, both hybrid and online

Part Three: Online Peer Review

* For continuous quality control and impreovement

* To have instructors learn from each other while improving courses

******Have to ask Amy Jo about her role and how it is supported (credit release?)

Research Baed: Sloan Consortium: Sharing Efective Practies

Five Pillars of Quality Online Education adapted from Sloan C http://sloanconsortium.org/effective

Learning effectiveness, Access, Facuty satisfaction, STudent Satisfaction

Bottom-up more buy-in and more faculty satisfaction

How can we be best online learning program we can be?

Alliance for Higher ed competivenss

Executive leadership and Faculty Leadership (Online development Coordinator next year LSC will also have Peer Reviewer Coordinator too)

Took out point system to met/not met essential standards and other best practices

Lowered stipend for lead reviewer from $300 to $150 (5 reviews will be lead by Peer Rview Coordinator/semester

They don't always look at game-based learning as learning but they are

Why games work
highly motivating
provide immediate feedback
lower stakes=less pressure
collaboration & competition
promote reflective thinking

Workforce becomes more releveant

iamFFIRST.com

Th.D = Thinkologist

iamFirst Celebrities promote Science as Rock and Roll

We need to say goodbyr to learning theories of the 50/60's
listen to students
continue to be disruptive in educatin
Be the change agents of faculty development & facilitate internal transition

What does the learner want (maybe more so need versus want)

Embrace internal changes as well as external

"It isn't the changes that do you in, it's the transitions.  Change is situational..."

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts" Winston Churchill

Make space for some brand new ideas. "Unlearning It's easier for companies to come up with new ideas than to let go of old ones" 

Planets

My very eductaed mother just served us nice pizza (no pluto now--it's not a planet)

what color is the yield sign (too funny most said yellow but it changed in 1971 to red and white)  Shows why we have to "unlearn" some things

We have to unlearn that we are a "two year college" (high school, students finish in 1 year, or 3 years)

information is scare, seat time equals learning, set beginnings and endings, its easier online,

Trends

Traditional classroom is gone

Blended learning will emerge (almost everything will include e-Learning)

Institutions need to re-engineer physical space

E-Learning gies new meaning to snow days for some Central New Jersey students

 Like Ford analytics of gas mileage with real time immediate feedback -- opportunity to do the same with students (looking forward to costs coming down so more can be done from a learner perspective)

Credit hours will be challenged

Credentialing will be challenged

?By 2030 over 50% of Colleges will Collapse (Thomas Frey)

The total amount of borrowing reached a record $2.84 trillion, with student loans reaching $1 trillion

284,000 college graduates, including 37,000 advance degree holders in the US were working minimum wage jobs in 2012 (wall street journal)

Education built on same system as trust as banking industry (based on trust and students aren't trusting system now as a degree doesn't necessarily mean a job)

No need for textbooks (which were created to augment the curriculum being presented)

Open source, open courses, open tests (more and more being created every day)

More collaboration--peer review process still important

Flatworld knowledge (pay faculty to develop textbook but also does more integrated peer review process versus Merlot where it is volunteer recommendations)

We will play games to earn a degree (game-based learning increasing and possibly creating a digital divide)

"Anyone who tries to make a distinction between education and entertainment deson't the first thng about either" Marshall McLuhan

4. Plan (Application to graduate is too late) Plans should be formulated earlier and shared

Here are you choices which one do you want to do? Every student needs a plan

5. Purpose

Clarity of purpose their probability of  success goes up


New student experience helps students figure out why they're here.

1) Purpose is constructed in a social context/social construct
2) Purpose emerges over time (conversation doesn't just happen once--weave the discussion into every part of the learning)

6.  Person

I am a person.  I am not a number.  I am not the magnetic strip on the back of the card.  I am not a unit of consumption.

Tell us when you really felt like a person at the college.  90% told of a time the faculty broke a rule to treat you as a person.

What do you do to personalize learning through elearning?

In every learning experience you are working with a real person.

What can you attribute your success to?  NONE said the college's strategic plan!! All named a person, someone.

A MOOC will never treat a person as individual person  MOOCS are not about the learner they are about the business!

Deep DNA
* Teacher as assembly line worker
* Student as raw material
* Institutional as Natural Resource

Freedom to not show up

Commercial/Retain Model
Early 1980s
Growth in enrollment, revenue, market share, and brand, brand, brand

Sell lifestyle (dorms, rec center, co-curricular life)

Drive the price up and discount it (42% in average coverage through assistance)

Deep DNA
* Student as Customer
* Professor as ??? Consumer Concierge" (my term)
* Institution as business enterprise

"Selling convenience"

New Cultural Model
The Learner at the Center- The best expert on the learner is the learner

Listen to the Learner
Need an army of listeners to hear and make meaning out of what you hear

Design Template  - 6 P's
1. Preparation

One of the most powerful predictors of success - are you ready to learn - preparedness
Insist of preparedness

Include someway for learner on the front end to know if they are ready.  Why not free?  Autoregistry one hours of work to show you are ready and if not, what you need to do to be ready.  Every student every learning environment.

2. Place
Community
Sense of Belonging
Social Capital

3. Pathway
Most powerful learners are medical students (structure)

Those in most need are given too many choices without structure.  "Here's 6000 classes for you to choose from"

"That's malpractice" Need pathways for curriculum that's intended to take them someplace.

Metastucture--fewer pathways more structure

6 pathways for AA's metamajor (business, liberal arts) narrow choices early so they can broaden them later.

What Every Student Needs The Six P's


Bologne was the first spot of the first University Monastic Model
*13th century
* Preservation and transmission of culture
* Harvard, Princeton, Yale all started to train monks

"There's a reason why we wear funny clothes at graduation."

Reason the classrooms had a podium (the lectern).

Deep DNA in Monastic Model
* Role of Professor as Priest (consecrated if I say you are worthy--you will recite)
* Student as Novitiate
* Institution as Conservator and Authority

Cleric ("Clark"-bureaucrat) to accurately collect tax and census work

Architecture still very reflective (domes, spires, gothic/classic architecture)

German Polytechnic Model (and American Land Grant University)
* Mid 19th Century thru 1930's
* Generation of new knowledge and its "practical" application
* BIG Agriculture, BIG Technology, and finally BIG Science

Einstein went to Zurich Polytechnic

Deep DNA
* Professor as researcher/innovator
* Student as apprentice scientist (To drive the economy)
* Institution as engine of economy

(Stanford architecture--trying not to be a church)  Form follows function

MIT - Both designs present

Industrial  Model
* Post WWII - 1950'2 to mid 1970's
* Production of graduates for the workforce

GI bill (called something else) and VA hospital (and loans)
within a year 3 million enrolled in college, didn't have enough housing
Women's colleges were turned into co-ed to help meet needs and absorb overflow

Truman Commission included we needed to retrain workforce and present system wasn't ready to do this so they Jr colleges became comprehensive community colleges (redo schools that were Rosie the Riverter schools).

1964-65 Large increase in schools

Baby boom (19 years after the war ended and soldiers came home)
