Design for Student Success

We know that students are more successful when certain design practices are built into an online course. First, this means looking into the digital design of how we build our Canvas course. In fact, here at VVC, the top frustration for our online students is a lack of organization of the Canvas course. Second, we also want to find ways to be more inclusive in how we address our students and build relationships with them throughout the course.

So what are some ways you can up your game? Spend some time looking through the two syllabi below and see where you are doing great, and where you could make some simple alterations to increase student success.
