Course Design and Development

In designing a course, start with what you want students to have learned by the end. Instead of asking, "What should I cover?" ask "What should they learn?" Course materials and activities should all support articulated learning outcomes which reflect what students should be able to do at the end of the course.

Educators may or may not know whether students have disabilities. So it is essential that courses are designed with accessibility in mind.

Active learning is a student-centered approach in which an instructor uses instructional strategies that engage students as active participants throughout the learning process.
Learning Outcomes
