The Course Development Process
Our instructional design team coordinates and oversees the design and development of online and blended/hybrid courses, in partnership with faculty as course developers. A systematic process is followed in order to design and develop high-quality, engaging learning experiences based on instructional design principles and research related to best practices in teaching.
The specific course development process is shown in the diagram below. There are five milestones in this Phase, including Course Blueprint, Syllabus, Master Shell Development on Blackboard, OSCQR Review, and Course Presentation.
ADDIE Model
The ADDIE model is a wonderful guide to get us started in making the development practice as smooth and seamless as possible.
Inclusive Teaching
Create equitable courses by using diverse materials and teaching strategies to support every student’s success.
Bloom’s Taxonomy
Bloom’s Taxonomy categorizes learning objectives and aids in designing effective teaching strategies for critical thinking and deeper understanding.
