3 Sharing Online Courses: A CIC Strategic Priority
Strategic Priority 1: Expand access to learning opportunities by sharing intellectual capital CICHQ’s Role: To provide administrative support (CIC CourseShare) necessary for member institutions to share highly specialized, if not unique, online courses.

4 CIC CourseShare: Pilot Courses
Nursing Informatics (Spr 03) Graduate seminar Primarily videoconferencing 4 schools participating (Iowa-Lead, Indiana, Michigan, and Wisconsin-Madison) Online Portuguese (Fa 03/Spr 04) Undergrad and graduate Hybrid course (web-based mostly asynchronous + local native conversation leader) 5 schools interested in participating (Mich State-Lead, Illinois-Chicago, Ohio State, Penn State, and Wisconsin-Madison)

5 CIC CourseShare: Primary Components
Three Primary Components of CIC CourseShare Voluntary agreements between participating Deans outlining conditions of course development and implementation Administrative agreements between Registrars regarding issues such as: Registration, Add/Drop/Withdrawal, Grades, Transcripts Consortial support to help collect, manage, and track student and course information between universities

6 CIC CourseShare: Deans’ Agreements
Principle 1: Respect the academic standards and quality of participating departments. Principle 2: Where institutional policies conflict, the student’s home institution’s policies rule. Principle 3: Regarding administrative procedures and practices, again “home court rules” in effect. Principle 4: Agree to minimize barriers and challenges for inter-institutional students. Principle 5: Participation by departments is voluntary.

7 CIC CourseShare: Administrative Agreements
Registrars agreed on procedures to allow inter-institutional course sharing: Registration happens at student’s at home institution Grades appear on student’s home grade reports Credits appear on student’s home transcripts Tuition paid at home and shared, as agreed, between Deans

8 CIC CourseShare: Administrative Support
CIC headquarters staff provide administrative support: Working with faculty and academic departments to coordinate development and delivery of shared courses Supporting exchange of information between institutions Providing online administrative tools Providing supplementary course information to students via CourseShare web site Tracking and reporting CourseShare participation by school

9 Future CIC CourseShare Courses
Assuming the pilots are satisfactory… Deans or their designees will meet to: Determine priority list and timeline for development of additional courses in: Nursing Informatics Less Commonly Taught Languages Determine which universities develop/teach which courses Draft the agreements to be signed by Deans
