Learning Design and Development

This is the third module in a suite of 5 openly licenced Digital Fluency modules developed at OUT in collaboration with OER Africa to address the needs of Academic staff in the 21st Century.

The learning design module will expose you to a curriculum approach that integrates diverse learning principles, theories and methodologies in order to effectively design learning environments that help you achieve your intended learning outcomes as an educationalist. Learning design is a crucial concept in the learning process because individuals learn differently and the learning design approach provides guidance and support by utilising various pedagogical strategies and techniques that motivate, engage and excite learners.
