In this module you will be exploring aspects of learning design and open education practices. Based very much on your own context, you will be considering the constraints and requirements of designing learning within your role and explore opportunities for the use of open education resources. You may also draw on your own instition’s strategies, policies and procedures or wider context of national legislation, standards and frameworks. Developing areas which you have already touched on in previous modules, such as accessibility and usability, intellectual property, open access and copyright, you can pursue your own interests within the module activities and assessments. You will develop hands-on experience of evaluation of online CPD provision in an open course, aiding and enhancing your own professional development.
