Below is just one example of a module format that might work for your course. We suggest including your Module Objectives and instructions for successfully completing the module at the top of each section, then putting reading assignments and activities below. Repeating this set-up in each module provides consistency for students so they know what to expect each week and do not need to worry about missing something important for that week's requirements. Of course, the actual components of your modules will look different (i.e. you may not have reading assignments, or you may require a forum post at the beginning of each week); the important thing is that each module is easy to follow and that the structure is repeated as closely as possible in the other modules.

Example Module Structure:

"Module Objectives

Students will be able to.... [insert module objectives]

Instructions for Successfully Completing the Module

[Include reading assignments and other activities that students should complete]

Reading Assignment
  • Read [textbook], Chapter --
  • Read this journal article [insert link]

[create activity(-ies) for students to complete]"
