BOLD - Blended & Online Learning Design
To develop blended and online courses, University of Strathclyde uses a course design approach informed by established theory, and years of practical experience. BOLD (Blended and Online Learning Design) offers a flexible design process for staff developing an entirely new module to a light-touch course re-design. The BOLD approach ensures our courses are well designed and keep students at the very heart of digital education planning and design.
Course development processes
Developing online courses is a significant undertaking which requires planning, resourcing, and management. Using established project management methodologies, online developments follow a three-stage model of planning, content development and online class site build. The model helps both new and experienced teaching staff take a planned approach where resources are well managed, and quality assurance and University standards are maintained.
