The five phases to create the novel online learning course ‘CRISPR 101’
The course was designed in five phases based on the SAM model. (1) Conceiving the idea and concept by bringing WEHI’s science educators and world-leading CRISPR scientists (SMEs) together to develop the framework for the course. (2) Design of course content based on discussion with the SME. (3) Implementation of the course content into the online course creation tool ‘Articulate 360’ and creating all building blocks. (4) The course is launched and advertised to the initial cohort it was designed for. (5) Evaluation of the course by asking learners to participate in a survey. The arrows indicate that the design process is an ongoing iterative process with evaluation and feedback informing course design.
