Policies, Procedures, and Expectations
-
Acronyms and commonly used terms quick guide:
Term Meaning Sync Session Synchronous Online Sessions: Organized opportunities for faculty and students to meet over Zoom. Revamp/Revision Two distinct levels of updates to online stage courses:
- Revision: Regular updates made to a course prior to the go-live (e.g., points totals, assessment questions, minor content updates).
- Revamp: Scheduled (2–5 years) updates made to a course that ensure that the content is current for an extended period (e.g., updated content videos, improved interactives, overhaul of the course).
Stage Course Formerly known as “Course Template.” The location where an online course was originally built and is maintained, to be cloned out to live sections of a course by the Carey Learning Technology Group. Hotfix A needed fix to a learning asset that is broken or not working properly in a course that is currently live or going live soon. Assurance of Learning AoL: The systematic process and assessment plans that collectively demonstrate that learners achieve competencies for their program in service of the school’s accreditation. Zoom Classroom Support ZCS: Undergraduates who will work to help faculty with basic Zoom tasks during online class sessions.
-
- Learning objectives are the most important part of course development. Without them, we would not have a clear understanding of what students are supposed to gain from an activity.
- The best crafted objectives are written in a way that establishes what is known as the “ABCD Model”:
Audience Who will be completing the activity? Typically, this is students in your course. You will want to consider this group in terms of existing funds of knowledge. Behavior What concrete action will this audience be able to perform at the end of the lesson? This is often the behavior/action you will grade on. Students commonly recite, identify, or present. More of these and their greater category can be found in Bloom’s Taxonomy diagrams.
Hint: “Understand” and “Know” are not measurable.Condition Under what circumstances will this audience perform the behavior? This could be time or other restrictions/rules, or after different experiences/stimuli. Degree To what degree will this audience do this, or what is the mastery level? We often think that 100% is the goal, but often times this is not realistic for your audience. Use this variable to determine what the audience experiencing success looks like.
-
- The course blueprint is a tool used by Teaching & Learning to document the components of a course before building it in the LMS.
- In collaboration with the faculty designer, the instructional designer and multimedia producer, in addition to other T&L staff (also known as the course design team), uses the blueprint document to align objectives, draft an outline of the course, and identify any technologies or tools needed for the course to be successful.
-
(See Course Evaluations & Surveys for more information)
- Mid-course evaluations
- Mid-course evaluations are surveys administered to students in certain courses during week 3 of the term. Reasons for distributing a mid-course evaluation to students include (but are not limited to) the following:

- For more information, please consult Course Evaluations & Surveys.
