Online Learning in Computer Information Systems Using Quality Matters™ Standards - Lissa Pollacia. Jack Russell & Barbara Russell; JOLT
The dramatic decline in the number of CIS majors since the year 2000 has focused attention on the need to develop new, innovative, and high quality CIS programs to attract more students. This paper describes a multi-disciplinary minor in CIS that has been recently developed for online delivery. To assure quality of the courses in the CIS minor, the authors participated in training to prepare for development of the new courses. These new courses had to meet the standards set out in the Quality Matters (QM) Rubric by MarylandOnline, Inc. An overview of the QM standards and Rubric and how it is used to measure the quality of online courses is described.
