CAPDM’s experience in developing more than 20 online programmes has allowed us to identify a subset of course components that are commonly deployed in online and distance education learning designs, but frequently onsite too in support of face-to-face delivery.

Typical set of course components for a distance learning programme

Courseworker comes with example templates and publications in XML for each of these components, helping you to get started quickly in creating your own. Here is a list of the default components you can start with today:

• Course book –full academic texts or workbooks
• Assessment set – multiple assessments with linked answers

Courseworker can be extended to support your own custom course components such as reusable learning objects, standalone topics, online tutorials, journals, course specifications and study plans.  All can be organised around your chosen learning objectives and assessed against the agreed learning outcomes.
