How can I tell if my online course is well-designed?

There are several assessments available that can be used by instructors to gauge how well the design of their course(s) meet standard best practices for online education.

The Quality Online Learning and Teaching (QOLT) instrument is one such tool for assessing how well a course matches up to recommended best practices around online teaching. QOLT is an assessment developed by the CSU using a variety of assessment instruments. Our QOLT certified Instructional Designers would love to help!
