Description

This course explores the key approaches and principles underpinning course design and alignment between learning outcomes, teaching strategies, and assessment. The course builds on the previous courses 'Introduction to University Learning and Teaching' and 'Student Learning in Higher Education'. To allow both for breadth in course design as well as depth in a key area such as assessment, the course is developed to allow participants to investigate an area by drawing from a range of options that include assessment, teaching strategies, course design, and educational technology. The assessment is focused on planning and designing a key element of a course, which will ensure high quality learning, and how this might be evaluated for impact and evidence of its effectiveness.
