Adapt Courses for Different Modalities

Multimodal course facilitation is guided by the concept of sustainable course design. The course is initially designed for asynchronous online delivery within the learning management system (LMS), including all necessary content, activities, and assessments. This forms the core multimodal foundation. Once a course is designed for asynchronous online delivery, faculty can then selectively hide or release certain components to adapt the course for different modalities like face-to-face, hybrid, flipped, or synchronous online. This "multimodal delivery" approach allows the same core course design to be used across various teaching formats by simply showing or hiding relevant materials. This multimodal approach, enabled by sustainable course design and uHoo Analytics, allows faculty to facilitate the same course effectively across different modalities, while catering to the needs of all students. The real-time data empowers them to make evidence-based adjustments throughout the semester. 
 
The set of resources below is designed to support faculty by providing options which consider desired time commitment and depth of knowledge.

These professional development resources will help you to:

  • Apply an instructional design model (ie. Gagne's Nine Events) to course facilitation.
  • Explore effective course facilitation strategies within various sustainable course design delivery formats such as asynchronous online, synchronous online, flipped hybrid, technology-enhanced f2f, and hyflex.
  • Explore ways to use digital technology and the learning management system to facilitate learning in various modalities.
  • Examine instructional strategies to engage learners in multiple modalities.
  • Utilize appropriate grading tools to provide constructive feedback to students (ie. checklists, rubrics, peer assessment, etc.).
