This course was designed for instructors with minimal learning design experience. It will help you to develop an approach to online course design that models Penn State Quality Assurance e-Learning Design Standards and employs Quality Matters Standards to promote effective and engaging learning experiences for Penn State students. Ideally, you will be taking this course to prepare for the development of a new, fully online course. Or perhaps you will be engaging in a redesign or edit of an online course that you have already taught. It will be useful to those either working on their own or in partnership with an instructional designer.
