In phase II, participants are engaged in a 4-weekasynchronous online course that begins to address backward design as it relates to eachindividual’s course and allows participants to experience online learning from a studentperspective. Participants work with various instructional materials to gain foundationalknowledge and are required to engage in peer discussions to help explore pedagogical ideas andstrategies. Each week, participants submit assignments that are meant to serve as working draftsfor later refinement in the course design process. These assignments include defining courselearning outcomes, mapping out and aligning formative and summative assessments, creating anassessment, creating a syllabus, and identifying

The campus is very fortunate to have several green screen studios and after theinitial orientation, a standing appointment was scheduled where the professor could go in andrecord with the media specialist. The files would then be sent to GOEE’s audio-visual specialistwho would composite the presentation feed with the actual image of the professor. An exampleis shown in Figure 1.Figure 1.

Based on theresults of this study and the student survey, the course structure proved to be easily navigated bystudents ensuring that time was not wasted looking for required resources and assignments.Providing a defined starting point for students with set expectations using introductory materialand live orientation in addition to a standard syllabus is imperative if faculty members are to

For example, consider that the weights wm , wh , and the totalnumber of homework asigments n are given by the course syllabus and that a student has ahomework average ∑ni=1 hi /n after n assignments. Then, the effect of SP, if felt at all, will bedirectly proportional to the score of the dropped score and inversely proportional to the grade in −1his or her midterm exam.

Although the questionnaires often containeduseful information, they were also rife with contradictory, confusing, and illegible feedback.Now that our university has an online option for SRIs, the legibility problem has been mitigated,but the confusion and contradictions remain endemic to the process. In general, the engineeringfaculty attitude we most encounter regarding the mandated SRI is that they are unfortunate,unfair, and flawed summative judgements of their teaching and courses. They are not viewed ashaving much, if any, formative use.With the introduction of our SGID process, we were able to not only provide actionable resultsfrom

It seemed like the tests were designed to trick not test.” • “The course seems to be more of a survey of many concepts and ideas as opposed to a set of connected concepts that build on one another. This is okay, but I feel like some of the lectures could be reorganized for more flow.” • “I liked that Learning Suite (the online schedule and grading system) was very organized, and the course structure was the same all semester, but I didn’t learn much…It would be more appropriate as a 400 level course to be less broad and delve more deeply into
