The aim of this online course is to provide you with the skills and knowledge to design online and blended learning, teaching and assessment.

In the course you will:   

Explore and share inspiring practice drawn from the new blended environment
 Explore engaging and inclusive design for your context 
Analyse how different technologies/platforms can support different types of learning, teaching and assessment 
Apply principles of online design to your teaching, assessment, units and programmes

By the end you will have designed a sequence of online activities for a week of teaching, and will have the knowledge and skills to build a user-friendly course in Blackboard using a range of different tools and types of task.  

Previous participants have really valued the experience of seeing the learner perspective as you will do on this online course. There will also be optional hands-on activities where you can practice setting up and using digital approaches from a teacher perspective.

What if I have already engaged with the University’s Digital Design course?   

This course draws from the Digital Design course but has new sessions on Day 1, Day 6 and Day 7.
