Abstract

Three strategies enabled a team at Neumann College to build two online degree programs in less than a year: 1) Strict course design guidelines - the "Template"; 2) Online faculty development in electronic pedagogy, conforming to the guidelines; 3) An internal peer review process. The development process brought together faculty and administrators from the Continuing and Adult Professional Studies (CAPS) division of Neumann College in Aston, PA with technical staff from Drexel University's Online Learning Team. The CAPS template provided branding and a common student experience, and eased the work of the designer/instructors. The online pedagogy course provided a vehicle for communication and course development, as well as training for novice online instructors. The peer review process provided useful feedback and allowed faculty to learn from others' work. Our experience has provided a model for course development that will have a long term impact on the College.
