How We Work With Faculty
Our collaborative course design process is one of mutual respect and appreciation for each party’s expertise. This process supports faculty by expanding and evolving their teaching practice and domain expertise in new and innovative ways.
Online and Hybrid Course Development Process
Over the next several months, you and the Instructional Designer will co-manage the course development timeline and collaborate on the following development tasks:
- finalize a robust student-centered syllabus
- align course objectives and outcomes with your weekly content.
- draft instructions and details for the assessments, activities, rubrics, and module topics from your syllabus
- build student-facing course content in Canvas.
- brainstorm with media specialists and educational technologists to identify engaging activities and tools
- manage Quality Assurance (QA) testing Canvas course
Development Timelines
Your assigned instructional designer will reach out to kick off the course development process with a meeting to determine milestones, deliverables, and next steps. To prepare for these meetings, we recommend that you review the following example timelines for each semester.
- Spring cycle timeline [ADD GENERIC TIMELINE]
