EDUC 000/3021 - Designing and Assessing Instruction with Digital Technologies (3 cr.)
Description
Drawing from international trends in course design and redesign, this course focuses on the importance of a carefully thought-out instructional design (ID) process and aims at the application of assessment practices in any course format (face-to-face, blended, and online). In the course, we will go through the process of establishing achievable teaching objectives and measurable learning outcomes at the course level, and through a range of assessment options, we will decide what types of evidence will provide information as to whether the learners are meeting those objectives and outcomes. Students will follow a systematic approach to create their own instructional activities and to align assessment with the help of digital technologies (e.g., Web 2.0 tools, Virtual Reality technology…)
This is a project-based course, in which active and collaborative participation in the course activities is required. Thus, participants will be encouraged to complete readings, engage in face-to-face and online discussions, and prepare a technology-enhanced project that is relevant to their learning/teaching context, both individually and in groups.
