What’s the one tool every faculty member should have in their instructional tool box?
(Here’s a hint: it’s easy-to-use, and highly effective, for course design and review…)
It’s Quality Matters! The eLearning department at Tacoma Community College has created this well-produced 9 minute video about Quality Matters. Grab a cup of coffee and take the time to watch every minute of it!

Although QM was designed for review of online courses, the QM review rubric is quite helpful for designing face-to-face courses, as well.
You will learn about:
· QM Faculty Learning Communities
· How individual colleges are using QM
· Why we’re using QM in Washington State’s Open Course Library Project
· What makes QM effective in designing and reviewing online courses
· Using the QM rubric
Everyone in the CTC system may use the one page, condensed, QM rubric, which is posted on the State Board website. Also, each campus has 50 copies of the full length, annotated rubric.
