Course Development and Redevelopment Workshops

Developing an Online Course

“Our online classes and online history bachelor’s program would not be as successful as they are without the substantial assistance and support of the Ecampus Course Development and Training team.” – Katherine Hubler, instructor, School of History, Philosophy and Religion

This workshop is a six-week training session designed to jumpstart the development of your first online course and create course materials appropriate for online learning in a collaborative environment. The workshop is facilitated by the Assistant Director for Ecampus Course Development and Training, Katherine McAlvage, and a team of instructional designers. You’ll receive feedback from a cohort of peers and an instructional designer throughout the workshop.

Redeveloping an Online Course

This advanced, four-week workshop guides you through an analysis of your current online course and the planning process for a redevelopment in a facilitated environment with a cohort of peers. You will select from a series of deep-dive modules that allow you to explore specific aspects of course design or delivery that you hope to improve in the next iteration of your course.

The final project in each track that you select involves articulating an innovative strategy that you will use to strengthen one aspect of your redeveloped course.
