In partnership with the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office AI Fellows, this six to eight-hour self-paced course is designed to help educators build practical, actionable skills to navigate the rapidly evolving role of AI in teaching and learning.

This course is ideal for faculty, instructional designers, and academic leaders looking to thoughtfully integrate AI into their work while supporting student success.

Quality Course Design

Developing an online course with a quailty rubric can be valuable for a new course or improving an existing one.

The De Anza Online Education Center recommends using the comprehensive CVC-OEI Quality Course Design Rubric

Along with our workshops & trainings, additional Professional Development is offered through @ONE! One recommendation is the comprehensive Online Teaching & Learning Course!

Peer Online Course Review (POCR)

Overview

Peer Online Course ReviewThe Local Peer OnlineCourse Review (POCR) was established in 2014 by the CVC-OEI Professional Development Workgroup to ensure that students in the California Community College system have access to high-quality online courses designed to support student learning and success. This process is voluntary and separate from department instructional evaluations.

Our Local POCR Team will utilize the CVC-OEI Quality Course Design Rubric  to review a course for alignment using course design guidelines in content presentation, substantive interactions, assessments, and accessibility. These quality reviewed courses have an increased success rate for students.

Once aligned, courses will receive a “quality-reviewed” badge that is visible in the student search for courses in the California Community College Online Course Exchange. (cvc.edu) Badged courses rise to the top of the list for courses that have empty seats.

If you are an experienced online instructor who has taught a course for at least one full term online, please contact our Instructional Designers with Online Education to schedule a consultation.
