Online Classroom Best Practices/2– Review Links to Make Sure They’re Active– Update Course Each Semester – Ensure Content is Current – Check for Accessibility Issues– Weekly Email to Students– Use Large Font for Announcements – Start Course with Strong Communication– Maintain Rigor– Add Multi Media as You Go

Decisions… Decisions…• Every course can have high retention and
high success rates, IF you sacrifice Rigor.
• Every course can have low retention and low success rates, IF you sacrifice quality instruction.
• Somewhere in the middle of that continuum or rubric if you will, there is Rigor, Quality Instruction, AND high retention and success.
