Course Design Institute (CDI) provides a foundation in current course design knowledge and an applied workshop that can be used to develop a new course or redesign an existing course. Participants gain exposure to the theory and science of course design and evidence-based approaches in teaching and learning.

During CDI, participants will: 

• Apply evidence-based principles of learning to the design of a course
• Write course learning outcomes and learning outcomes for at least one course unit
• Create an assessment plan to evaluate student progress toward the course learning outcomes
• Consider learning activities and assignments that address the course objectives.
