Due to the current COID-19 pandemic, I can expect that we will be delivering a lot more instruction online. What was thrown together for the spring due to the outbreak does not resemble a well-designed online course. We can do much better.
I am recommending that you explore these five strategies for building an online course that is engaging and useful—one that you will be proud of. These strategies are
- Backward design
- Open Educational Resources
- Universal Design for Learning
- Quality Course Review
- Accessibility
This week we are going to take a look at these five strategies and set you on a self-directed learning path to designing a great online course.
