Constructing Courses to Enhance Learning/Welcome

Welcome and Introductions


Welcome to Constructing Courses to Enhance Learning.

I'm Terry Marler the course facilitator. The aim of this course is to help you to design flexible learner centred courses and integrated programmes linking outcomes with learning activities, content and assessment, and accommodate learner, discipline, departmental, organisational, and industrial or professional body needs. You will experience a variety of learning methods and approaches in this course, which will serve as exemplars from which you can select to use in your own course design. These will include online tutorials and discussion, research activities, and tutorials on the use of online tools by arrangement.

The schedule found under the course modules tab is for formal learners in the course. Informal learners are welcome to either follow the schedule in your own time or dip into the resources and play with the information shared in the hope that it adds to your own learning.

The formal Constructing Courses to Enhance Learning course consists of 17 weeks of interactive learning online beginning July 16th 2012. Also offered are 3 optional face to face workshops in Dunedin for those who are able to attend and 10 optional online Adobe Connect tutorial sessions. There is an expectation of independent study throughout the course.
