- We know that it is possible to . . .
- These models are scalable Start with outcomes by students Design it so that IT does what it does best Monitor Practice/review Evaluation of quantitative or short answer People/faculty do what they do best – provide individualized assessment and feedback with needed Student are doing the work

- CONCLUSION We will have 30 different models in diverse disciplines from diverse institutions with diverse student populations. They share many things in common – C and Q, the pedagogical and labor-saving techniques I’ve outlined. But each has its own unique twist – additions or improvements based on what others have done, based on their particular student population. Most importantly, each course is not a “one-off” – the faculty can collectively and continuously improve the “products and services” they offer. They can incorporate products and services into their designs as they come on the market.
- Politically incorrect – looking for new metaphor . . . (Drawn from Round I analysis – will do the same for Rounds II and III 1 – USM, Penn State, Rio 2 – Alabama, Idaho, Dayton, Tenn, CMU 3 – UNM, Portland, Ohio State) Pedagogical (5) – like Continuous Assessment and Feedback, Increased Interaction among Students, Continuous Support , Online Tutorials, Undergraduate Learning Assistants Cost reduction (6) – like Online Course-Management Systems; Automated Assessment of Exercises, Quizzes, and Tests; Online Tutorials; Shared Resources, Staffing Substitutions; Reduced Space Requirements Redesign models – ER article, not sure if this is exactly right Cost models - Combine sections, reduce personnel with sections staying the same, substitute personnel with sections staying the same, increase students with the same resources, one big section Good redesign ideas (from all 30 projects) - Points for quizzes (UNM, FGCU); TA certification (OSU); Intelligent Essay Assessor (FGCU); ClassTalk (UMass); Learning teams (Colorado); Modularize course content and credit (OSU); Modularize levels of achievement (Drexel); Course assistant (Rio) Evaluation models – from Peter and those used
