Course Overview

What this course is about

A structured, beginner-friendly course covering the core principles, tools, and thinking behind instructional design and eLearning — grounded in real practice, not theory alone.

You’ll work through practical exercises rather than passive theory, applying core instructional design models to real scenarios. By the end of the course, you’ll be equipped to design, structure, and assess a complete learning unit from start to finish — not just talk about how it’s done.

Curriculum

What you’ll cover

A structured breakdown of exactly what you’ll build and master in this course, from core frameworks to your final capstone project.

01. Foundations of Instructional Design

Purpose, process, and principles — what instructional design actually involves, and the mindset that separates deliberate design from simply presenting content

Learn to diagnose the real gap behind a training request, then translate it into learning outcomes specific enough to actually design and assess against.

A practical comparison of the field’s core frameworks — what each one asks you to do differently, and when to reach for which.

Learn to plan a learning unit screen-by-screen or session-by-session using a real storyboard — and how that plan changes depending on whether you’re designing for in-person facilitation, blended delivery, or fully online.

Design assessments that actually test what your outcomes promise — and learn to spot the common mismatch between what a course teaches and what it measures.

A practical tour of the authoring tools, LMS platforms, and lightweight formats used in real instructional design work — then apply them directly by designing, storyboarding, and building a complete mini learning unit from start to finish..
