Student-content interactions

 * Each learning pathway will incorporate a video signposts that will be used to provide students with an orientation or stimulus for each of the major topics.
 * Learners will work through a series of learning pathways designed for independent study.
 * Each learning pathway will incorporate one or more learning challenges. These learning challenges will be designed to function as building blocks for the final course assessment. We envisage separate e-Learning activies for 1st and 3rd year levels
 * OERu resource bank where learners are encourage to share links to resources they find on HRM related to their own countries.
 * Each learning pathway should, where possible incorporate a short interactive quiz using MCQs with formative feedback.

Student-student interactions

 * Students will be able to interact via a number of MOOC-like technologies which will be harvested for an aggregated timeline / course feed incorporating interactions from:
 * WENotes micro-comment activities and posts. The comment field will be provided on individual course pages on the course site
 * Discussion forum posts - currently using Discourse unless alternate platform is selected.
 * Personal blog posts and comments

Student-support interactions

 * Students will be encouraged to use a the peer-support question and answer forum for addressing support questions.
 * Self-study help tutorials will be provided for the main technologies used in the course and linked as footnote links in the course site.

Course site structure

 * Will adopt the OERu course structure based on main navigation for:
 * Start here
 * Course guide (Course aims, course resources, syllabus or schedule, course assignment and recommended resources.)
 * Interactions (Course announcements, and course feed)
 * Learning pathways (i.e. learning materials directing the study of the open textbook.)
 * Footnote navigation for help and support tutorials.
 * Generic learning pathway structure. Each learning pathway will include:
 * Overview and aims (using the boilerplate template for consistency)
 * Video signpost (intended as stimulus for the section)
 * Individual pages directing study of the open text incorporating comment activities. Specific objectives / outcomes to be stated on individual pages. Some pages will include a resource bank activity or forum activity.
 * One or more learning challenges where learners are required to post their journal entries on a blog.
 * Each micro-course will conclude with a MCQ quiz of 20 to 25 items.

Workload

 * Full micro course: 30 hours
 * Learning time: 24 hours (Including e-tivities). Target 2 learning pathways per week for 3 weeks. About 4 hours for each pathway.
 * Summative assessment 6 hours
