We support the development of new courses or the redevelopment of existing courses, drawing on good practices for digital course design. This includes ensuring that courses have constructive alignment between learning outcomes, course content, and assessment, applying Universal Design principles to ensure inclusive learning, and crafting meaningful and authentic learning experiences. We support the development of entire courses, individual modules, specific assessments, or other components of the curriculum.
Accessibility Audits
Being well versed in digital accessibility practices, we can review and advise on how to increase accessibility of course content, course site design, and other aspects of your courses.

We design and create interactive learning experiences for online, blended and HyFlex courses using industry-standard software. We also maintain a library of modules on a variety of common topics that can be adapted to fit your specific needs.
