Week's End Report - June 8, 2018

Course Checks Completed!

This week we completed the online course checks and notified faculty of our findings. We were pleased to send out 55 emails for sections that did not contain a single error in course setup- that's nearly 40% of our online sections!

Here's a list of the percentage of our current online courses in compliance with each check point:

Profile
  • 67%, up from 59% in spring
Syllabus
  • Instructor contact info- 84% down from 90% in spring
  • Supervisor contact info- 96%, down from 97% in spring
  • Online Learning support contact info- 87%, slightly up from spring
  • Non-attendance and last date of withdraw- 64%, the lowest compliance rate in 2 full academic years
  • Additional Communication section- 93%, slightly up from spring
Calendar (observing non-instructional days)
  • 75%, up from 66% in spring
While there's always room for improvement we were fairly pleased with the results of the summer course checks. Please remember that the following information can be found on the Getting Started website:
  • Online Learning Support contact info
  • Non-attendance and last date of withdraw
  • Non-instructional days
Because the correct information is provided and communicated each semester by email, the compliance rates for these should be 100%. To reference that website please be sure to read all emails received from GWC-Online@ivytech.edu and bookmark the following website:
