Previous Online Short Course Information

The course will start by exploring a variety of Instructional Design Models but it will focus on one or two models that are widely used in Instructional Design Courses in the USA. We will integrate a few other popular design models. The purpose of this course is to introduce the design model in the simplest way so that participants can quickly gain enough understanding to apply it to their own work. You will have the chance to make sense of the design models and see how it can be applied in case studies. The aim is for you to learn how to use the framework as a guide through the instructional design process in your workplace. The course is run on a Moodle platform (Learning Management System) and consists of reading material, audio presentations, assignments, discussion forums, wikis for collaborative writing and quizzes.
