Course Design and Development
Instructional Design Services is geared to support instructors in the development and growth of distance education courses. The idea is to tap into not just one or two experts in instruction and technology but to connect and provide a network of support and expertise from within Lane’s own distance education teaching community. Utilities and services offered by IDS include:
-
