Best Practices Course Reviews
Process update
Recently, the WSU online group had a discussion regarding the best practices review and how to handle courses that have limited online elements and are not seeking to add any in the near future. The decision was made that courses of this nature will not benefit from this review and will therefore no longer be included.
