Course Design

Courses can be designed in many ways, influenced by the academic program which it contributes to, the characteristics of the students, instructors, and teaching assistants, delivery methods, and the types of learning outcomes for the course. A thoughtfully planned and designed course will support student learning while saving you time and energy, allowing you to focus on delivering content and assessing students.
