The Design and Development Assistance
We can assist you in: enhancing your course learning environment, exploring and expanding your instructional style and meeting student needs.
We’re here to support you in troubleshooting specific learning problems We’re also here to support you when debating the addition of something totally new e.g. a new course, a new section to a course, a new lecture, new assignments or testing, new learning strategies or a new technology.
We’d be pleased to help with any phase of development in a new education-related initiative, including design, implementation, and evaluation within a course. Use us as a sounding board, if you’d like feedback on a change you’re considering.
The Step-by-Step Guide, linked to below, is intended to walk you through the process of making concrete your visions or brainstorms related to your course or community space. If at any time you are not certain how to proceed, always feel free to submit a request for assistance or call or e-mail us directly.
Other sample projects, that have either explicitly or implicitly used this guide, are avaiable below. These include "internal" OED projects, as well as projects of faculty members. In addition, a large variety of University of Minnesota or world-wide resources are included for your browsing pleasure.
