Co-creating Digital Curricula in Higher Education : An Instructor?s Guide to Team-based Online Learning Design

Co-Creating Digital Curricula in Higher Education is a step-by-step guide to the collaborative design of online and blended curricula in higher education using systematic yet flexible frameworks. While instructors charged with developing and delivering curricula in the remote era may lack formal credentials in learning design, technology management, and institutional leadership, they nonetheless have numerous opportunities to partner with stakeholders who do. This practical, actionable workbook empowers and upskills teaching faculty to partner with their fellow professionals―instructional designers, lead administrators, librarians, and other student support personnel―in co-creative design endeavors that foster outstanding curricula and engaged, successful learners. This holistic, team-oriented approach, intended to ensure curricular cohesion within and between courses, certificates, and programs, is supported by workflows, checklists, workshop agendas, and other field-tested resources.
