ASCILITE Technology Enhanced Learning Accreditation Standards Update

This ASCILITE initiative, TELAS (Technology Enhanced Learning Accreditation Standards), seeks to introduce an internationally benchmarked accreditation framework that will assess, assure, certify and recognise the quality of online learning. Previously various endeavours and initiatives have been established such as scorecards1 and rubrics2 to evaluate the quality of online learning and provide guidance in the development and enhancement of online learning environments. Professional associations, such as the Australasian Society for Computers in Learning in Tertiary Education (ASCILITE) have a major role to play in regard to assuring the quality of online learning in higher and further education.
