Take Away

This course was my first experience having two professors, and two styles of teaching, at the same time; which sometimes resulted in some confusion over expectations and communication.  This course built upon the information introduced in 02:782 and saw participants take on the role of "curriculum leader".  While the previous class focused on design and development, this class focused on the implementation and evaluation of curriculum with an emphasis on thorough student understanding.  The primary focus of the course work was in preparation of the final case-study which was introduced through multiple discussion activities on Moodle.

The course schedule saw participants attend a video-class biweekly in which the topic of discussion included a combination of lecture, large-group discussion, and student presentations.  In the week following a video-class participants continued dialogue through the Moodle community discussion forum. 

Included in my assignment exemplars are: 1) an excerpt taken from an introductory Moodle discussion on the foundations of curricula understanding and 2) a case-study on a theoretical curriculum implementation plan.
