This course presents an overview of curriculum development and an introduction to the Instructional Systems Design Model. Participants will learn to design and evaluate curriculum, develop instructional materials, assess student learning and measure instructional outcomes for use in online classes for K -12. Topics include preparation of course outlines and syllabi, development of lessons plans, design of evaluation instruments and an explanation of how learning objectives and evaluation strategies affect the selection of content and materials.

This course will introduce participants to study of the latest techniques and software to enhance the creation and design of online learning courses or programs. This class will present an overview of graphics, audio, video, Flash, and other multimedia used to develop online learning activities. This course will also introduce students to audio and video technologies, general multimedia tools and those specialized in accessing learners with disabilities. Participants will be introducing to the concepts of streaming vs. progressive download vs. download, different multimedia, streaming formats and illustrated audio.

This class examines elements of effective instructional design for the online learning environment. Students will learn how to create tailored instructional models based on course objectives, target audience, subject matter content, class management and assessment methods. This course will study the design of effective, reliable assessment techniques and evaluation models for online learning. The course is comprised of three major phases of the design process (Analysis, Design, and Development) that guide students through converting or developing course material for an online course. Participants in this course will also create a capstone project focusing on their lessons from throughout the entire Teaching Online certificate program. This course will focus on student's progress and practical application to current or prospective work opportunities. Students will work collaboratively with an advisor before submitting their final project.

This course is a study of different technologies available for administrative, instructional, and management uses in education and training and focuses on both the current technologies available and those in the adjacent future. Students will explore the affordances provided by these technologies for productivity, skill development, and content creation.
