Figure 1: Courses in the core physics curriculum at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.For this work, we collected course materials that were publicly available through course websites.For the majority of courses, the materials consisted of the syllabus and assignment details. Wechose to analyze more materials from the lab (401 and 403) and advanced composition classes,because these courses require the most writing, despite the imbalance this introduces whencomparing across the full set of courses.2.2 AnalysisWe drew on systematic methods for qualitative coding of the course materials [20, 21].References to writing or written

Students alsoconfirm that the syllabus for the course is almost always loaded in the LMS, but that the location canvary. Students conveyed their desire to be able to download course materials; have a calendar tool withannouncements and assignments linked to it; and to have the ability to submit assignments online.

The evidencegathered in the MOOCIBL platform shows that students on both types of teams were able toproduce deliverables believed to have high impact and external value beyond the classroombased on the rubric set in the course syllabus. These deliverables include: a patent application,journal and conference papers, competition awards, and invited outreach presentations, just toname a few shown in Table 2 and Table 4.The results suggest Multi-site teams are as capable of being successful as F2F-only teams.

. The Instructor- Initiated Drop allows an instructor to drop a student from the instructor’s course if the student exceeds the noted attendance and/or missed assignment policy outlined in the course syllabus15. An instructor may voluntarily adopt and use the policy only through the last day that a student may drop themselves during long semesters (approximately the first 10 weeks of the semester). The policy guidelines state that if an instructor chooses to implement drops, the instructor must:  Inform students on the course syllabus that they will be dropped for exceeding the unexcused absence or missed assignment limit.  Specify in the syllabus the exact number of unexcused absences and/or missed

There are many elements that affect instructional design such as objectivesclarification, quality of the contents, learning strategies, learning motivation, and learningassessment18. Researchers describe objectives clarification as including a syllabus and learningpathways that must be provided to online students for successful course delivery22.
