Assumptions about Inclusive Course Design
Assumptions about Inclusive Course Design
All Course Online is not ideal.
We are teaching and learning in a time of trauma
Most students are novices when it comes to managing a full load of online courses
Scaffolding supports students who need it, but does not harm those who do not.
To be inclusive and reduce cognitive stress all course modalities need an asynchronous backbone
Modules should house all content, assignments, discussions, and assessments scheduled for the duration of the module.
Leverage pages and assignments in place of external links. External links are exclusive from an accessibility perspective and a cognitive perspective. Instead, link materials within a page, assignment or discussion so appropriate context can be provided and the immersive reader is available.
