The Course Design workshop I took at McGill Teaching and Learning Services is done and it was a formidable experience. It was a good reminder for several issues that I first discussed during an earlier workshop in 2008.
Here are a couple of keywords about things to investigate in more detail (again):
- Blooms taxonomy
- Content as a way to help students learn
- Project-based learning
- Concept maps (also for introducing a course to students!)
- Strategies for assessment of group work in a university context
I also noticed that a lot of methodology originating from the non-profit sector and professional training increasingly find their way into university teaching!
