Material Detail

In this project we redesigned the online Title 5 course to allow multiple sections to share online content, freeing faculty to work more closely with students. The class was built on the Moodle 2 platform, utilizing publisher course packages (online textbook and ancillaries), individualized faculty lectures using the TED format of multiple talks under 18 minutes each -- maximizing viewer receptiveness and cognition, posted lecture outlines, and iterative assignments and exams allowing students to lay a meaningful theoretic foundation upon which they can scaffold layers of content knowledge. 

Because the course content is developed and posted prior to the semester and shared between multiple sections, faculty are freed to engage students directly in discussion forums and through individualized interventions as appropriate to individual student performance.  The resulting learning environment leverages individualized faculty engagement and encourages differentiated learning.   The net effect will be to reduce the number of sections needed while increasing the capacity of faculty to work closely with students at risk.  All materials and interactions are ADA compliant.
