IML: Designing Subjects & Courses
EXCERPTS:
“In designing course programs, it’s important to consider the overall aims for student learning in the course and how the structure of the course and its component subjects enable students to achieve these aims….”
“Designing a subject also starts with considering what and how students are intended to learn, then designing the learning objectives, subject structure learning activities and forms of assessment with this in mind. On this site you’ll find some suggestions and resources for improving subject design, considering student diversity and introducing flexible learning. You may also be interested in the sections of this website on assessment, groupwork and e-learning.”
Teaching Goals Inventory Online
Test to see if you are meeting your teaching goals.
Took it:
This table contains
your results. The third column contains the
percentage of items within each cluster that you
rated “essential.” The fourth column contains the
average rating you assigned to items within each
cluster.

You identified your primary role as a teacher as
“Fostering student development and personal growth.”
It may be useful
to compare your results to those of a large sample
of teachers. The following table provides mean
cluster ratings and the average percentage of items
in each cluster rated “essential.” The data were
collected from over 2,800 faculty members at 15
community colleges and 17 private four year
colleges. The sample is clearly biased in the
direction of faculty working at institutions with
the education of undergraduates as their primary
mission, and if your institution’s mission differs,
you will want to keep that in mind.

Excerpts:
Linking Effective Teaching to the Course Outline…
“How can I get students to discuss more in class?” “Why aren’t they completing required readings?” “Why did my students do so poorly on the mid-term?” “I’m teaching a class for the first time. What books am I going to use?” “How am I going to assess my students?” Sound familiar? Although these common questions may appear to be isolated issues, they are, in fact, closely related.
The source of the problems giving rise to these types of questions can usually be traced to the manner in which the course has been set up, or, more specifically, to the course outline, that apparently benign document instructors assemble and distribute to students at the start of semester. Whether it is intended or not, the quality of the course outline is a fairly reliable indicator of the quality of teaching and learning that will take place over the course of a semester.
