Instructional Design 

Instructional Designers help faculty and those creating alternative modality or tech-enhanced courses develop engaging and interactive learning experiences using proven strategies for excellence in online teaching and learning. Designers work closely with course authors in any phase of course design, development, and revision. You may consult one time or occasionally with an instructional designer or work together over a period of time on a full course project. Contact a designer today to discuss best practices in course development.
