Abstract

This paper discusses the importance of student course design for the Distance Learning (DL) classroom. The authors examine the history of DL and strategies for designing the online classroom including content, structure and the user interface. A learning/student centered model, “Preparation, Interaction and Evaluation" (PIE) is presented. The authors examine the integration of technology, content, pedagogy and online delivery as it affects the student learning experience. One institution’s process and model for creating interactive-rich learning environments is presented. The model and process may be used as a template for institutions wanting to improve their course development practices and online classroom quality.
