    Version 2.0 DL 10.11.2021

    As a pre-assignment, you have already written the basic information and course connections on other courses. Continue the work by adding text to the following themes (see the course plan template): 

    • Course connections on programme level learning outcomes (you can use for example Table 1, see the course plan template)
    • Content (for example core content analysis)
    • Intended learning outcomes (including also skills such as group work, presentation skills etc.)

    Version 3.0: To this version, add the following chapters and pedagogically justify your choices:

    • Assessment: methods, criteria, scale. Remember to justify your choices.
      
    • Teaching methods with justified choices.
      
    • Materials used during the course

    NOTE: 3.0 is the version your peers are going to give peer feedback about (in your own groups' Course Plan -forum). 

    When you give feedback on course plans, you may use the following questions to guide your work:

    - Read the ILOs (intended learning outcomes) – are they written from the students’ perspective, do they state at which level ( e.g. Bloom taxonomy) student should be after the course?

    - Pay attention to constructive alignment: can you see the connection between ILOs, assessment and teaching methods, content, used materials?

    You can also comment on other parts of the course plan.
