Season III Episode 12 - Curriculum Design and Development feat. Katherine Burton & Ryan Hughes
In the latest episode of Teaching Tips, Joshua Sugata and Mark Trollinger discuss the unique structure of GCU’s collaboratively created, centrally managed curriculum. Instructional Designer Ryan Hughes and Curriculum Developer Katherine Burton explain how the courses are created, the curriculum is designed, and assignments are developed through input from the faculty and the College. This process not only ensures the list of requirements the College requires are incorporated into every class, but also creates consistency in learning objectives and outcomes regardless of the modality. Tune in to learn more about this unique approach to GCU’s curriculum and how to address the situation if you encounter issues in your classroom.
