QM’s presentation, “Incorporating Quality Assurance Standards in Online Course Design: Grades 6-12” will be on Wednesday, Feb. 2nd at 8:00 AM.   

This session will present the results of a joint effort by the Quality Matters Program and the Florida Virtual School to adapt the Quality Matters rubric for online/blended course design in higher education to meet the needs of middle and high school courses. The session will deal with the year-long development process, the results of extensive testing of the new rubric and the ways in which we anticipate that the Grades 6-12 Edition will be used.

During the whole event you will be able to learn more about the Quality Matters Program at the QM booth in the exhibition area.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Columbus.
