Strengthening Academic Internet Learning (SAIL)is Gaston College’s new online quality initiative. The expectation is that with an increased effort on online course quality and a comprehensive online student support system, student learning will improve in online courses. In a concepts-based presentation,two Gaston College instructors will show attendees how these SAIL standards were used to improve their online course quality. Examples will be presented from Introduction to Computers, Web Fundamentals, Emerging Technologies and User Support&Software Evaluation courses. Statistics will be used to show the increase in student learning outcomes from the SAIL initiative. Attendees will get to take away the online course standards used by the college and approved by SACS. Come SAIL with us!
