A Faculty-Focused Course Design/Redesign Process, Pat Reid

IMPACT Presentations

As a part of the IMPACT (Instruction Matters: Purdue Academic Course Transformation) project, faculty attend weekly developmental workshops. As these have become progressively more focused and interactive, we realized that many faculty members have little to no education in sound course design. As a result, a faculty-focused, backward design process was developed that offers a flexible, step-by-step model. The model provides both practical and theoretical background at each step, links to articles, videos, websites, and more for faculty who wish to delve deeper. Presented at the EDUCASE Learning Initiative (ELI) 2013 Annual Meeting, Denver, Colorado.
