Program & Course Design Support

CITL provides Program and Course Development and Design Support for any UWSP units, faculty, or instructors. Units wishing to create or revise new programs should take advantage of CITL’s Program Planning and Development support, which can include development or revision of all courses in the program. Units wishing to revise existing programs can seek Program Revision support, which includes program evaluation and planning and course revisions. Additionally, faculty or instructors who would like support creating or revising individual courses are encouraged to take advantage of CITL’s Course Design or Revision resources. CITL incorporates pedagogy, andragogy, and online teaching strategy support and coaching throughout the program and course design process.
