TMA 6400 Secondary Course Design
This course explores methods for designing courses for secondary students through non-traditional methods. Students learn and practice how to design a course online, which includes setting up the course in an online platform, creating lessons and assignments, providing feedback in a variety of modalities, assessing, and setting up a gradebook. How to flip a classroom to get middle and high school students more involved in their own learning is another method that is examined. Emphasis is placed on students’ chosen content areas as they create lessons, assignments for each course design.
