Editor's Notes
- #2 Opening the Gate: A Fast and Easy Way to Create, Collaborate, and Share Courses!
- #3 Why did CCCS decided to convert CTE energy courses to hybrid? Provide more opportunity for students to complete a certificate or degree Industry demands The TAACCCT1 grant required all COETC consortium members courses touched by the grant to be in online or hybrid format
- #4 CCCS-Colorado Online Energy Training Consortium members Our consortium had 16 colleges and we needed an cost efficient way to develop or revise 270 courses. Converting course to hybrid design had the same “bell curve” of the technology adoption curve: the early adopters eagerly submitted their courses whether they were “final editions” or rough drafts. As the website was built, more and more colleges, were peeking and willing to share. Instructors and institutions began to see similarities and differences and began contacting each other/other institutions for resources. That contact started a intrastate collaboration on course development, leading to several exemplary courses that are now being used system wide.
- #5 Success to Date Aug 2012- 15 courses in hybrid Dec 2014- approximately 270
- #6 Courses Now in Hybrid a sampling Aims Community College—Oil and Gas Technologies Pueblo Community College—Workforce Development in Mining and Extractive Technologies Colorado Mountain College—Solar Technology and Manufacturing Process Technologies Northeastern Junior College—Wind Energy Red Rocks Community College—Water Quality Management
- #7 Line Person
- #8 Solar and Process Technology
- #9 Water Quality Management
- #10 Oil and Gas Technology
- #11 Wind Energy
- #12 Situation Report Aug. 1 2013 Only 15 out of 122 course had been converted to hybrid format Due date for all 122 courses to be in hybrid format Dec 2013
- #13 Why were we like a giraffe in a pool”? We didn’t know what needed to be done before full scale adoption Asking faculty to commit to a different teaching style At first, provided no training or resources to provide pedagogy or help for converting courses There was NO detailed plan to convert a F2F course to hybrid.
- #14 How Did WE Avoid “Drowning” Analyzed Certificates and Courses And Created Plan A
- #15 Plan A Analyzed Certificates and courses Identified courses in currently in hybrid status Selected: Courses in certificates with high enrollment F2F courses which could be “flipped”, delivered online, used simulations, and where authentic assessment was needed for certifications Courses that could be shared between colleges to maximize use of faculty time and reduce duplication of effort. Created a course development plan with benchmarks and deadlines
- #16 What supported Plan A? Faculty Out Reach Course Mapping “Chunking” the content Used competition between colleges as an incentive Publicized the success of grant hybrid courses in “what’s new in hybrid” email blasts Published courses to OER And used public “shaming” within the consortium
- #17 Faculty Outreach Info Graphic Sent out Hybrid InfoGraphic and a How to Manual Contacted each faculty developer taking a PN “positive or negative” reading on their course development Identified the “early adopters” of hybrid design or those faculty that were willing to try Built relationships with faculty willing to listen and try out new courses design Made site visits to helping faculty to redesign their courses
- #18 Course Mapping Course Competencies Module topics Measurable Objectives Content, Activities, Challenges Assessment, Rubrics Feedback Publish to OER
- #19 Chunk the Content When building the content: Create “snack-sized” appetizers of Content delivery Content Challenges and Activities Assessments Feedback Stack the appetizers into full sized modules
- #20 If Plan A wasn’t quite right for a college…gave them plan B An instructional designer worked onsite and through teleconferences with faculty to convert F2F courses to hybrid Returned to steps 2, 3, 4 and 5 of Plan A
- #21 Just when you thought it was safe in blended learning
- #22 Was OER a “Hard Sell” Yes Instructors who taught by the textbook didn’t want to change. Instructors who were willing to move to hybrid were reluctant to then “share” their courses
- #23 Challenges to Converting to Hybrid Technology Time Quality Assessment-Reluctance to “buy-in” that a hybrid course is as good or better than F2F Long standing belief that CTE courses are different because of Competency Based testing and industry certification Evolving Online/Hybrid Pedagogy Differing LMS’s Competency-based courses which only used industry supplied manuals for content delivery
- #24 What Worked Well? Detailed Plan Use of Instructional Designers Central website for easy access to all hybrid courses, www.cccscoetc.weebly.com Allocating enough time revise F2F content for hybrid delivery Detailed course mapping first to see when and where OER fits into an existing course Course mapping new courses to ensure all competencies are list to find appropriate OER Central URL repository for easy access to OER sites Central website for OER index Multimedia hosted on an institution channel or institutional account Allocating enough time to search & revise content
- #25 What did it Take for Buy in Instructional designers A specific “hybrid only” message” Recognition of impact across college departments and across the system Increased enrollment in certificate courses
