Introduction
Durham Tech's Online Course Guidelines summarize the best practices of quality online instruction.
The guidelines are intended to provide guidance for instructors who are new to online teaching; to help experienced online instructors identify areas for improvement; to assist supervisors with evaluating online instruction; to guide professional development and training efforts; and to communicate the college's expectations internally (faculty/staff) and externally (accrediting bodies).
The guidelines were originally written for asynchronous online courses but are largely applicable to synchronous online courses as well. More guidance for synchronous instruction is being developed.
These guidelines were approved by Durham Tech’s Teaching and Learning Council on 12/3/2021.
