Este artículo presenta la importancia de revisar el curso en línea para mejorar la calidad del diseno del curso a distancia, promover el aprovechamiento academico y aumentar las cifras de retención. En conjunto, con un comité de profesores de Humanidades se realizó un enfoque sistemático y unificado de revisión de un curso en línea, durante un año.
Se aplicaron los estándares de “Quality Matters” (QM) a una revisión de un curso en línea utilizando la 7ma edicion de la rúbrica de educación superior para aumentar la motivación, la ejecución y la satisfacción estudiantil. En este estudio, se discute cómo cada estándar fue aplicado para refinar un curso en línea. El propósito de la revisión fue abordar sistematicamente, los estándares propuesta por la rúbrica de QM. Los hallazgos revelaron aspectos a mejorar en cada uno de los ocho estándares generales. Algunas de las mejoras incluyeron la creación de un mapa del contenido del curso, diseño claro y predecible, recordatorios semenales y rúbricas. La acutalización del diseño del curso resultó en uno más accesible y práctico para el uso estudiantil. De igual forma, la retroalimentación de los estudiantes confirmó resultados positivos después de la implementación exitosa de las mejores prácticas, al utilizar la rúbrica de QM.
