This session will showcase how online educators at the California Community Colleges have been utilizing innovative combined approaches to better serve students from underserved populations. Several years ago, the California Virtual Campus developed its Online Course Design Rubric along with a Peer Online Course Review (POCR) process to help colleges align online courses to this rubric. More recently, the Peralta CCD introduced its Online Equity Rubric, adding another critical tool we can use to help students and improve important equity metrics. During this session, participants will hear from POCR Coordinators at three CA community colleges who will describe their approaches to using these two rubrics together for the benefit of students.
