Description: Researchers Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe have explained how the backward design approach is to look at a course, module, or lesson with the end in view first. This workshop will introduce faculty to the backward design approach. By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Identify the characteristics of the backward approach to course design
- Consider how learning outcomes can be used to design assessments
- Assess the types of multimedia and resources available to assist with student learning
- Determine the different teaching and planning strategies that might be used with a backward design approach
