Title: Stage 2
Course: Stage 0 - Orientation

Course Design and Technology

Stage 2 is focused on how we make the fundamental design choices about our courses whether the courses are face to face, blended, or fully online. If you really want to just get on with Moodle then your decisions behind what happens in Moodle will be better ones after this stage. During the stage we will use Moodle for our communication, then towards the end of the stage we will consider how we can make good choices about Moodle tools for teaching and learning.

Stage 2 Outcomes: On completion of this stage, participants will have:

  - considered their assumptions about how students learn
  - been introduced to the concept of pedagogic strategies
  - chosen the features (characteristics) of their course
  - applied the concept of affordances to the issue of tool choice
  - used the Moodle Tool Guide as a practical application of affordance analysis
