HRE 470 - Design of Learning Systems

In this course we in groups with the main project of creating an online course/training for a given group or demographic. The group I was in consisted of Matt Herdman, Shelia Bouie and myself. We created an online course for a Consumer Math Class. Within this we not only created several learning modules within Moodle, but also a Facebook Page for the students to use for further discussion.
