The process of revising my course in Media Ethics for Quality Matters certification was an enriching journey that deepened my understanding of effective online education. Though I have taught the course since 2013, revisiting it allowed me to meticulously evaluate every aspect of the course’s design, from learning objectives to assessment alignment. With the assistance of Julian King, I reexamined my course’s clarity, accessibility, and engagement, with the goal of ensuring that all learners would have a robust learning experience and thrive. The process highlighted the importance of continuous improvement and peer review. Ultimately, achieving Quality Matters certification not only validated my efforts but also reinforced my commitment to delivering high-quality, student-centered learning experiences. This is a rewarding step toward enhancing educational excellence in my teaching.
