This event is also offered on July 27.

Supporting the student learning experience when using online course materials starts with the visual design and structure of the course and materials (Eom & Ashill, 2016; Reyna, 2013; Yang & Durrington, 2010). As there are several fields of research that provide guidelines or recommendations for achieving these goals, determining where to begin can be confusing.

In this session we will introduce a course set-up checklist that combines research from the fields of Universal Design for Learning (UDL), student wellbeing practices, and accessibility. Applying these techniques will help you to create online courses and materials that are easy to navigate, emphasize consistency across course materials, encourage safe and supportive learning environments, and are accessible to all students.

Facilitators:

  • Louise Longridge, Lecturer, Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences
  • Marie Krbavac, Educational Consultant, CTLT
  • John Cheng, Educational Consultant, CTLT
