I would have never thought about designing a course before and yet here I am enrolled in a design course. Not just enrolled in it for the knowledge but I truly have a desire to design an online course. Now is it reality? Yes, I believe it is. I also believe that now is the time for this to happen for me. This course is going to be the means in how I get it all started.
In the past I have taught an f2f workshop before and enjoyed doing it. Now I hope that some of the activities that were created in the workshop can be designed for an online course. I expect the design process to be different for online courses simply because it is set up with more projects to work on independently. There is also more student to student contact involved in the design course.
The two previous courses have helped me with learning how to work with different learning styles and teaching techniques for the f2f workshop. Both courses have given me a host of information that will help me in many other areas as well. When I think about the different learning styles it amazes me and makes me as an instructor more conscience of created activities that are adaptable to everyone.
One thing I must state is, after completing the first week of the design class I am really looking forward to moving forward with completing the upcoming assignments. I feel that there is going to be a lot of great information shared in this course.
