Flexible Teaching is an approach to course design and delivery that helps students learn and succeed in any mode: face-to-face, online, or hybrid.
Choose from one of the guides below to begin developing your flexible course.
The course design process involves intentional and deliberate planning in order to create a course that best supports students in any format of delivery.
When teaching in a flexible learning environment, the course materials often need to be rethought and expanded to ensure all students can access.
Choosing the appropriate technologies for your course can be challenging. It takes time to identify what tools will be most effective and master them.
