Course Documents Templates
Below are templates of documents and surveys I use in my courses.
This is the Course Schedule template that follows QM and OSCQR Rubric Guidelines.
This serves as an example of a Course Blueprint, which I use to detail the structure of my courses. It contains a Course Alignment Table, demonstrating how the course outcomes correlate with Chapter Objectives, Learning Materials, Assignments, and Assessments.
I used this general Assignment Template for each assignment. It is based on the TILT strategy (Transparency in Learning and Teaching). The sample was used as part of the 4-week project in CIS 110.
This is an example of a Weekly Overview Document that guides students through each week's learning process. I think the focus should be on the content, not the format, as the former can be adjusted according to your teaching style. I have included a sample of the one I used in my CIS 110 to guide students through the learning process for the week.
*The MaineLynn Academy Moodle site includes a version that uses the LMS page tool."
This is a sample of the Course Check-in included with every course. In my courses, I like to check in about three weeks to ensure that students are comfortable with the course and understand the expectations for the rest of the semester. This check-in also allows students to express concerns or ask questions about completing their work.
This is an assessment of the course. Students can provide feedback to the instructor, highlighting what is effective and suggesting areas for improvement.
