Aligning content with learning objectives using consistent module structure, chunking content, creating multimedia, and promoting accessibility.Host Lavonnie Perry Claybon explores effective course design strategies with Instructional Designer Trish Lange. Key takeaways include using backward design to align content with learning objectives, implementing consistent module structures through the UM3D M50 course design template, and "chunking" content to reduce cognitive load. Trish discusses how proper multimedia integration enhances student engagement, recommending short, captioned videos with embedded analytics. The conversation emphasizes accessibility features like Canvas's Accessibility Checker, with Trish's primary recommendation being the creation of clear module overviews and to-do lists to improve student navigation and learning outcomes.
