Instructional Design

What is Instructional Design?

Instructional Designers support faculty to integrate active learning, apply research-based best practices for course design, facilitation, equitable teaching practices, and ways to implement educational technologies effectively.

We are a resource for you as you re-think, design or redesign your courses to meet the needs of students and the outcomes of your course or program.

We can:

Assist with curriculum or equitable grading strategies
Collaborate on rethinking your syllabus & designing your course
Explore new teaching methods
Help incorporate best practices on course design, active learning, and accessible teaching
Advise on making your Canvas design visually appealing and cohesive
Support the use of educational technology in the context of your course content, cohort and teaching style
Offer input on multimedia and course content design principles to optimize student learning and engagement

See our Showcase for inspiration or our Newsletters for ideas!
