Abstract
- In this study, we examined student perceptions of the impact of QM standards on students’ learning and engagement. Nineteen graduate students enrolled in an Instructional Technology online program completed a survey created based on the QM rubric items. The QM framework includes 43 Specific Review Standards clustered into eight General Standards. Among the eight standards, students rated Learning Objectives, and Assessment and Measurement to have the highest impact on both student learning and engagement. These results will help instructional designers and online instructors understand the impact of individual QM design standards from students’ points of view as a means to design online courses that effectively contribute to their learning and engagement.
