Designing Modules
for Deeper Learning
In recent years there has been a paradigm shift taking place, moving the emphasis from teaching to learning and a more
student-centered curriculum.
The is on providing opportunities for learning
What is a Learning Module
Online learning modules provide students with a structured learning experience with a coherent and explicit set of learning outcomes, activities and assessments that integrate the face-to-face and online components of a hybrid course.
Opportunities for Learning
• Create opportunities for students to learn Before class starts– Preparation
• Create opportunities for students to learn During class– Face-to-face
• Create opportunities for students to learn After class– Reflection
Activity
This activity will help you gauge your feelings about which learning opportunities you’ll most likely include in the classroom and which you’ll
include online. Please mark your opinions on the form

How a student sees the Learning Module in Blackboard Learn
Alignment and Coherence
• Defining the learning outcomes; • Choosing the learning (and teaching) methods
that can lead to attainment of outcomes; • Assessing student learning outcomes.
Fostering Deep Learning
• Sustained interaction with content and others; • Explicit explanations and a clear knowledge
base for students; • Structuring in a reasonable student workload; • Providing opportunities for students to pursue
topics in depth so that they can understand the material for themselves;
• Ensuring an appropriate formative and summative assessment strategy.
Activity
Every course needs an introductory module.
Let’s create one together.
