Moodle 3 E-Learning Course Development - Fourth Edition

Mapping your approach

Mapping your course materials to your learning objectives will help you avoid creating a course that confuses students, and it will help them achieve their learning goals.

The best sequence for mapping is to follow a simple workflow, depicted as follows:

1. Identify your learning objectives
2. Create course sequence (chapters or units)
3. Write the specific learning goals for each chapter or unit, and tie them to your main learning objectives
4. For each unit or chapter, you'll have the following:
   • Chapter learning outcomes (tied to overall learning objectives)
   • Course content (directly ties to learning goals)
   • Activities (should be measurable and tie directly to your chapter outcomes)
