The e-Learning Maturity Model(eMM) focus…
“…changingorganisational conditionsso that e-learning isdelivered in a sustainableand high quality fashionto as many students aspossible” (2006)

The eMM focus… “The key concept is that the ability of an
organisation to be effective in a particulararea of work is dependent on theircapability to engage in high quality,reproducible, processes that can besustained and built upon”
Stephen Marshall Victoria University of Wellington (2006)

How can the eMM benefit PennState World Campus?
• Help us better understand our ownorganizational capacity for sustainedsuccess with online learning
• Implement change based on thatunderstanding
• Benchmark with other Institutions

The e-Learning Maturity Model (eMM)is…
• A quality improvement tool that measuresan institution’s ability to sustain onlinelearning
• Provides a set of key practices that caninform improvement activities

Process categories
Each process category includes multipleprocesses, for a total of 35 processes
![Page 7: Janet May's Assessing Online Learning Process Maturity: the e-Learning Maturity Model](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/548208d4b07959380c8b468a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
7
Process categories• Each Process assessed on 5 dimensions
![Page 8: Janet May's Assessing Online Learning Process Maturity: the e-Learning Maturity Model](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/548208d4b07959380c8b468a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

eMM dimensions1 Delivery ~ creation and delivery of
process outcomes• Assess the extent to which the process is
seen to operate within the institution.• Without capability in other dimensions, at
risk of failure or unsustainable delivery andwasting resources through needlessduplication.
![Page 9: Janet May's Assessing Online Learning Process Maturity: the e-Learning Maturity Model](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/548208d4b07959380c8b468a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
9
eMM dimensions2 Planning ~ assesses the use of
predefined objectives and plans inconducting the work of the process.
• The use of predefined plans potentiallymakes process outcomes more able to bemanaged effectively and reproduced ifsuccessful.
![Page 10: Janet May's Assessing Online Learning Process Maturity: the e-Learning Maturity Model](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/548208d4b07959380c8b468a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
10
eMM dimensions3 Definition ~ use of institutionally defined
and documented standards, templatesand policies during implementation ofprocess.
• The institution has clearly defined how agiven process should be performed.
• This does not mean that the staff of theinstitution follows this guidance.
![Page 11: Janet May's Assessing Online Learning Process Maturity: the e-Learning Maturity Model](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/548208d4b07959380c8b468a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
eMM dimensions4 Management ~ how the institution
manages implementation of process andensures the quality of the outcomes.
• Capability reflects measurement of theoutcomes and the way in which thepractices of the process are performed bythe staff of the institution.
![Page 12: Janet May's Assessing Online Learning Process Maturity: the e-Learning Maturity Model](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/548208d4b07959380c8b468a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
eMM dimensions5 Optimization ~ the extent to which an
institution is using formal approaches toimprove capability measured within theother dimensions of this process.
• Capability reflects a culture of continuousimprovement.
![Page 13: Janet May's Assessing Online Learning Process Maturity: the e-Learning Maturity Model](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/548208d4b07959380c8b468a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
eMM dimensions• Not an hierarchical model; does not measure
progressive levels• The dimension concept is holistic capability• Capability at the higher dimension without
capability at the lower dimensions does notdeliver desired outcomes
• Capability at the lower dimensions that isunsupported in the higher dimensions will beunsustainable and unresponsive to change andlearner needs

At Penn State World Campus…• Beginning an eMM project…
– Wanted a mature program, fully developed– Wanted a program that the World Campus
had developed, rather than another unit at theUniversity
![Page 18: Janet May's Assessing Online Learning Process Maturity: the e-Learning Maturity Model](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/548208d4b07959380c8b468a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

At Penn State World Campus…Selected BS in Turfgrass Science
• Worked with lead faculty, instructional designer,administrators, and others to assess the program.
• Required evidence collection.• Iterative process.• Assessment just completed…..
