| The
Online Teaching Model is correlated with commonly accepted benchmarks,
best practices, and guidelines of online learning, including
the
Principles of Good Practice for Electronically Delivered Courses.
The Principles are the product of a Western
Cooperative for Educational Telecommunications (WCET) project
that involved higher-education-regulating agencies, higher-education
institutions, and the regional accrediting community. This
document
now forms the basis for new accreditation guidelines adopted
by
the Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
The Principles
address curriculum, instruction, faculty support, resources for
learning, student services, and evaluation and assessment as they
relate to electronically delivered courses.
