Delivering and Improving Your Course
Launching your course (delivery)
Are you ready for prime-time? Can’t figure out when (or where, or whether) to use a forum? Not sure why your assignments look so strange? Can’t figure out exactly how to use screencasting? What did happen to your grade book?! There are several things to consider before you make your course available to students. Our ID team and the ATC can help you make sure you are ready. Contact the atc@lanecc.edu or idservices@lanecc.edu for a final review or assistance.
Course Refresh (improvement)
Course Refresh is on hiatus. Details for the new process and for flexible funding opportunities will be announced soon. We are still here to help you with all phases of course development throughout the summer term. If you are interested in finding out more about course development options please fill out the following form and an Instructional Designer (ID) will contact you asap.

Deeper Dive–Course Delivery and Improvement Resources
Accessibility
The ATC and your ID team are available to look through your courses for potential accessibility trouble spots. The Center for Accessible Resources will assist you when a student presents an accommodation request. Want an informal check? Run ALLY, our new Moodle plug-in used for running accessible document checks. Check your documents against the Accessibility Checklist. Ask your ID for help by emailing idservices@lanecc.edu.
Course Assessment
Are you ready for an in-depth walk-through with an Instructional Designer? We know by now you've been working with OSCQR, the research-based, customized course quality rubric designed originally at the State University of New York System. This course rubric provides measures with current best practices to create a class that emphasizes regular student engagement and meaningful assessment. Our ID team can help you assess your course with the OSCQR rubric and the following checklist.
