Bringing Equity to Online Learning: Campus Leaders Work to Ensure Fair and Inclusive E-Learning Experiences for All Students
Pierce, Dennis
Community College Journal, v93 n5 p20-25 Apr-May 2023
As community colleges create or enhance their online learning programs, campus leaders must find ways to make these experiences equitable for all students, so that everyone has a fair chance at success. Colleges are using a wide array of innovative strategies to do this. These methods include designing online courses with inclusion in mind, providing a consistent experience for online students, and front-loading the skills required to excel in an online environment. To help faculty deliver more equitable online instruction, the Instructional Technology Council (ITC), an affiliated council of the American Association of Community Colleges, has developed an online professional learning course on this topic, and data reveal that students who complete the orientation succeed at higher levels.
