ELQ – a model
for quality assessment of e-learning

ELQ
is made up of ten quality aspects which we consider crucial when as­sessing
quality in e-learning:

1. Material/content
2. Structure/virtual
environment

3. Communication,cooperation and interactivity

4. Student assessment

5. Flexibility and adaptability

6. Support (studentand staff)
7. Staff
qualifications and experience

8. Vision and institutional leadership

9. Resource allocation

10. The holistic and process aspect

1. Material/content

Ine-earning, the course material/content can consist of both printed and digital
material. Thus the selection, production and adaptation of course content are
of major importance to the quality of e-learn­ing. Course content can be
produced by publishers, individual teach­ers or by a group of course
developers. When dealing with complex digital media, a team of production experts
is often needed. In some cases, learners have become the producers of their own
learning ma­terial. The recycling of existing material available online and the
fact that digital “originals” cannot easily be authenticated or distinguished
from copies adds to the complexity of identifying an “author”. The dif­ferent
production processes raise questions not only about the quality of the course
material, but also about copyright.

Quality criteria:

a) Policy and guidelines for selection and
production of digital mate­rial, including explicit pedagogical and technical
criteria

b) Policy and guidelines for copyright
issues

c) Known and implemented a) and b)d) Internal evaluation and subsequent improvement of a), b) and c)

 Inger: Jeg syns dette var et nyttig refleksjonsnotat.

Audhild: Det så fint ut. Nå skal jeg prøve å legge en kommentar som egen post, det KAN også fungere.

Se forøvrig hvordan nettopp den metoden tar seg ut i ORG 3641 her: http://padlet.com/wall/org3641nettstudier

Kristin: Enig - veldig bra notat, Tone!
