 * A Handbook for Creating Engaging and Effective Online Courses **

An Online Course Design Handbook (OCDH) was created to systematize an existing design process at a large for-profit university. The OCDH is based on the Backward Design Model (Wiggins & McTighe, 2005) and infuses the principles of the ARCS Motivation Model (Keller, 2010). Participants in this session will learn about the challenges and successes of a pilot of the OCDH pilot in 2014 as the primary resource for faculty and staff involved in the process of online course design. Participants will receive a tour of the OCDH including its more than than twenty supporting worksheets and guides!

//Interactivity // N/A, but discussion time, Q&A factored into presentation time
