Sem in Online Crse Design.

Catalog description

This virtual seminar provides an immersion in course design for online delivery utilizing a "learning management system" (LMS). By concurrently experiencing the LMS from the perspective of a student and a course designer, learners gain both practical, first-hand knowledge of best practices in online course design and hands-on experience adapting these principles to the design of specific courses within their own disciplines. Discussion focuses on the challenges of course adaptation from the traditional to the virtual classroom environment as they relate to the organization, sequencing, and delivery of course content utilizing the web-based elements and tools available within the LMS. Particular emphasis is placed on the actual mechanics of the LMS.
