Online/Hybrid Instructor Resources

QM Standards

Quality Matters (QM) is an organization dedicated to improving online course quality. The Quality Matters higher education rubric is used to evaluate the design of online and blended courses. Xavier has adopted the Quality Matters higher education rubric as the standards faculty should adhere to for their online and hybrid courses.

Our goal with this resource is to help faculty develop or improve their online and hybrid courses. Resources on this site are intended to assist faculty by showing them ways to setup/organize their Brightspace course to meet each QM standard. Click on the link for each standard to get more information about that standard.

QM Standard 1 – Course Overview and Introduction
QM Standard 2 – Learning Objectives
QM Standard 3 – Assessment and Measurement
QM Standard 4 – Instructional Materials
QM Standard 5 – Course Activities and Learner Interaction
QM Standard 6 – Course Technology
QM Standard 7 – Learner Support
QM Standard 8 – Accessibility and Usability
