ADD AN EFFECTIVE PRACTICE

Welcome to the Sloan-C Effective Practices site. To help make quality online education accessible and affordable for anyone, anywhere, at any time, the Sloan-C community shares techniques, strategies, and practices in online education that have worked for them. All effective practices are peer reviewed to both insure quality and to give submitters some documentation for tenure and promotion files.

There are several ways to search for effective practices.

Search by Pillar allows you to search by the five Sloan-C pillars, the building blocks of quality online education – learning effectiveness, scale, access, faculty satisfaction, and student satisfaction – and/or subcategories within them.

Search by Context allows you to search by your perspectives (roles) in online learning, organizational type, or subject area domain, as well as by special cases of online learning (such as online collaboration, or large class size), and/or by subcategories within these.

Search by Technology allows you to search by particular technology categories – audio, video, synchronous, asynchronous, mobile, virtual, and digital resources – and/or by subcategories within them.

What's New returns the most recent effective practices added to the site.

Every few months we will also feature a collection of effective practices that address a particular issue in online education, complete with curator notes. There will be a featured collection, and previous collections will be archived. The Featured Collection page will also contain a call for effective practices to be included in the next featured collection.

We also encourage you to submit your own effective practices on any topic related to online education to our growing collection. Remember these are peer reviewed and so can help with tenure and promotion. Click on the Add an Effective Practice button to find out how, or contact Dan Robinson at: drobins@sloan-c.org.
