A recording of the May 19 DLS Instruction Committee webinar, “Collaborative Instructional Design: Leveraging Resources to Build Online Learning Experiences”, can be found here. More information about the presentation is below.
Student interest and participation in online courses and learning experiences are growing, but library budgets and resources are typically not. Collaborative instructional design is one way to leverage existing staff and technology to create library learning experiences for patrons in online spaces. Joelle Pitts, Instructional Design Librarian for Kansas State University, will discuss the case for collaborative design and guidelines for successful implementation based on her work leading an inter-institutional library instruction consortium. Particular focus will be given to the design and development phases, including the use of the rapid prototyping model, and the logistics of team testing and assessment. Critical questions, transferrable tips, and common challenges will be shared. Click here to learn more about Joelle Pitts.
