Positioning the Office of e-Learning to become a trusted destination for course design by faculty members from numerous institutions.
An integrated ecosystem, not a collection of links — every resource answers "What problem am I solving?" or "What should I do next?"
Organized around the Course Life Cycle: Prepare → Design → Build → Teach → Evaluate → Improve.
Assistants that solve real faculty problems, beginning with LOAH and expanding along a clear roadmap.
Reuses content across LinkedIn, newsletters, webinars, and microlearning under monthly themes.
Every resource on the LaunchPad fits within a six-stage journey, so faculty always know where they are and what comes next.
Get course-ready before the semester begins — plan materials, map your modules, and set the foundation for a quality build.
Apply QM-aligned design principles — build the CMM, align objectives, and design the learning experience with intention.
Develop the course in Canvas — supported by miniseries, on-demand trainings, and hands-on build resources.
Facilitate with confidence — pedagogical best practices, engagement tools, and the science behind learning.
Measure what matters — assess student engagement, gather feedback, and run mid-semester check-ins.
Reflect and refine — use reflection tools and improvement strategies, because course quality is a continuous process.
The LaunchPad moves OeL from a collection of resources to an integrated faculty development experience. Instead of asking faculty to hunt across disconnected pages, tools, and emails, the ecosystem links every touchpoint into a single, coherent journey toward faculty and student success.
All content builds or expands on previous content — nothing stands alone.
A single idea flows across every channel, no matter where or how faculty are viewing the content.
Every touchpoint reinforces QM standards of quality course design as faculty learn to build a quality learning experience.
A monthly theme connects LinkedIn, Motivational Monday, newsletters, webinars, LaunchPad updates, and microlearning — so faculty encounter a consistent message reinforced across every channel.
A structured, collaborative path from application to a quality-assured course — faculty and instructional designers working side by side.
Includes key course details, experience level with QM, pertinent information required on the QM Course Worksheet, and whether this is a new course or a revision.
Faculty member submits the Course Mapping Matrix (CMM) for review.
ID reviews the CMM and provides feedback.
Faculty revise the CMM while the ID conducts the course review using the QM Self-Review tool.
ID provides feedback about the Canvas course and recommends necessary LaunchPad resources and trainings.
ID and faculty member meet to discuss changes to the course and CMM, and set a timeline for the next review.
Faculty makes changes and the ID repeats Steps 4–5.
The ecosystem is accountable to visible metrics from day one, spanning reach, engagement, and adoption.
Traffic and return visits to LaunchPad resources.
Registrations and live/recorded participation.
Open and click-through rates on monthly sends.
Reach and interaction on the OeL channel.
Adoption of LOAH and future assistants.
Survey feedback and consultation demand.
Transform the Office of e-Learning into a comprehensive faculty development ecosystem — the trusted destination for course design, teaching excellence, and faculty development that guides every faculty member through every stage of teaching.
The research is clear: the need is real, and structured support works.
The LaunchPad is how OeL meets that need.
