This summer, Sarah Warnes, a teaching fellow in the department of Management Science & Innovation attended a JISC Netskills course entitled E-Learning Essentials. Rather than focussing on technological tools, the course concentrated on instructional learning design and how this may be applied when designing learning online.

Working with Matt Smith, Learning Technology Officer for the department and student developer Colleen Sutcliffe, Sarah has redesigned her course MSIN6001A: Understanding Management in a hope to successfully engage learners across a large cohort as well as offering greater opportunities for deeper learning at each stage of the course. In this workshop, Sarah, Matt and Colleen will share their experiences and provide guidance on designing, implementing and evaluating a scenario based blended learning course.
