Position Summary:

Participate in a Kickoff call

All Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) are expected to participate in a kickoff call with the appropriate Development Owner. The goal of the call is to create a shared vision for the course, discuss any special considerations, and get started on mapping out the course.

Produce raw content for the following deliverables:

• Suggestions for assessments, learning activities, and rubric criteria.
• SME Development Template.
• Notes/answer keys/ teaching suggestions to be included as a Faculty Guide.
• CBE (competency-based education) for course content depending on the course’s program.
• Video scrips and storyboards.
• Supplemental content in support of learning outcomes.
• Test Outs as necessary.
• Multimedia development suggestions.

Produce original instructional materials for online learning

Subject Matter Experts are hired to provide expertise in the subject area. As such, we are looking to the SME to provide original content and not only rely solely on the textbook or publisher materials.

This content should:

• Meet Rasmussen’s course development style standards.
• Be checked for accuracy and consistency of spelling, grammar, and other mechanical and style issues before submission.
• Incorporate constructive feedback into online tests, exams, and quizzes. If necessary, provide feedback prompts to other non-objective assignments that instructors can use when teaching the course
• Translate expected learning outcomes into instructional material that allows students to achieve weekly learning outcomes.

Deliver the content using the appropriate templates

The content development template provides content that can be directly translated into the finished course. What you see in the document is what will appear in the course.

Deliver the content in a timely manner

There are many people involved in the creation of an online course. Each is dependent on the others to have their part completed by a certain time; therefore, it is imperative that delivery milestones are met.

Participate in regular review sessions with the Development Owner

The Development Owner will be regularly reviewing the work submitted by the SME. Hence, the SME must be available for a regularly scheduled feedback call or email with the Development Owner. Development Owner and SME will come to an agreement on the time, frequency, and form of these communications.

You are responsible for a finished product. Do your best to submit your most polished effort, rather than a “rough draft.” Your Development Owner will support you in these efforts.

Be an available resource

The SME is expected to be an available resource throughout the entire course development process.

After the design phase, the course is turned over to our Instructional Design team to review the content the SME has developed.

Fulfill all the above responsibilities

SME must fulfill all the stated responsibilities for a positive collaboration.
