3.0 Module Overview: Content & Facilitation Planning

Content and facilitation planning: how do I flesh out my course design framework?

Your content provides the necessary information and tools that students need to complete activities and reach learning outcomes.  While it can be easy to find and add more and more content to a course when you build out your course's Canvas site, it's important to ensure that content actually supports your learning outcomes.

Additionally, this module will help you to think about teaching strategies to employ in the fall that will facilitate engaged, effective learning and an inclusive environment for students.
