Session Type: Industry Led
Delivery Format: Simulive

Creating a fantastic online learning environment may seem a daunting task for many instructors. However, the greatest resource for creating powerful learning environments is right at your fingertips: the students themselves. In this session, we will examine co-designing courses, using a case study of a co-created course on inclusive design.



Outcomes:

Learn how digital learning, if seen as a new opportunity, can open doors for students * Understand why students are the best experts in their learning, especially in this new environment * Discover how to create a scaffolded but customizable curriculum that allows students to direct their own learning
