Course Design for Working Adults
Rudi Aksim, Instructional Technology, Algonquin College

Working adults find it difficult to make space for learning in their busy lives and at the same time need assurance that what they are working on is relevant to their learning objectives. A project-based course design appears to meet their requirements, but also presents issues since its unconventional structure may be initially confusing to learners who are used to more conventional approaches. This presentation demonstrates one approach to this problem used at Algonquin College on both Blackboard and WebCT learning platforms.
