Learning outcomes:
- LO3: Analyze how the process of backward design can be used in effective assignment design.
- LO4: Deduce how backward design can be used to create comprehensive grading and assessment criteria.
The interactive infographic in Module 4 introduced you to the backward design framework and how it can be used to create lesson plans. In this video, Professor Robert Lue returns to the concept of backward design by touching on how it can be leveraged for effective course design. In doing so, Professor Lue explores in detail how best to go about designing a course by using backward design to determine the learning objectives, activities, materials, and the sequence in which learning will occur.
