What does TAACCCT SGA say?

“TAACCCT will support institutions that are committed to using data to continuously assess the effectiveness of their strategies in order to improve their program… and build evidence about effective practice..”

Strengthen Online and Technology-Enabled Learning

Strategy for Educational Improvement

The “Killer App” Feedback Loops for Continuous Improvement

OLI Supported Development:

• Apply learning science research and scientific method to OER development, implementation and evaluation.

• Develop OER collaboratively: Teams of TAACCCT grantee SMEs with OLI learning scientists, human computer interaction experts & software engineers.

• Use rich data gathered from student interactions to drive multiple feedback loops for continuous improvement.

Universal Design for Learning

What does TAACCCT SGA say?

“All online and technology-enabled courses developed under this SGA must incorporate the principles of universal design in order to ensure that they are readily accessible to qualified individuals with disabilities in full compliance with the Americans with Disability Act and Sections 504 and 508 of the Federal Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended.”

Community and Technical Colleges

• Producers (grantees) and consumers

• We’ll all need adoption, professional development plans — adoption will not happen without planning and leadership.

• We should commend the US Department of Labor for this landmark (CC BY) requirement!– request this be a requirement in all publicly funded

government grants… in all countries.

• Publicly funded resources should be open educational resources.
