A Faculty-Focused Course Design/Redesign Process

As a part of the IMPACT (Instruction Matters: Purdue Academic Course Transformation) project, faculty attend weekly developmental workshops. As these have become progressively more focused and interactive, we realized that many faculty members have little to no education in sound course design. As a result, we developed a faculty-focused, backward design process that offers a flexible, step-by-step model. The model provides both practical and theoretical background at each step, links to articles, videos, websites, and more for faculty who wish to delve deeper.

Learning Objectives:
* Describe common current faculty approaches to course design
* Describe problems with common industry course design models
* Describe the Purdue model
* Identify how this model can support you at your institution
