55202 - Course Quality Standards: "The same standards of course quality
shall be applied to distance education as are applied to any portion of
a course designed to be provided through distance education as are
applied to traditional classroom courses, in regard to the course
quality judgments made pursuant to the requirements of Section 55002 of
this Part, and in regard to any local course quality determination or
review process. Determination and judgments about the quality of
distance education under the course quality standards shall be made
with the full involvement of faculty in accordance with the provisions
of subchapter 2 (commencing w/section 53200) of chapter 2."
Delivery Method

Rigor
Assignments and evaluations should be of the same rigor as those used
in the on-ground course. If they are not the same as those noted in the
COR on the Methods of Evaluation and out-of-class assignments pages,
indicate what the differences are and why they are being used? For
instance, if labs, field trips or site visits are required in the face
to face section of this course, how will these requirements be met with
the same rigor in the Distance Education section?
Effective Instructor-Student Contact
Good practice requires both asynchronous and synchronous contact for
effective contact. Check the methods expected of all instructors
teaching the course.

Software and Equipment
What
additional software or hardware, if any, is required for this course
purely because of its delivery mode? How is technical support to be
provided?
Accessibility
Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act requires access to the Federal
government's electronic and information technology. The law covers all
types of electronic and information technology in the Federal sector
and is not limited to assistive technologies used by people with
disabilities. It applies to all Federal agencies when they develop,
procure, maintain, or use such technology. Federal agencies must ensure
that this technology is accessible to employees and the public to the
extent it does not pose an "undue burden".

Class Size
Good practice is that section size should be no greater in distance ed
modes than in regular face-to-face versions of the course. Will the
recommended section size be lower than in on-ground sections? If so,
explain why.
