Instructional Design Support at UMSL

UMSL instructional designers create effective, engaging learning experiences by partnering with faculty to design, develop, and support courses and instructional materials. They apply learning theory, educational technology, and best practices to structure content, build meaningful activities and assessments, and ensure accessibility and quality. We guide faculty in ensuring quality online experiences, adopting online teaching strategies, integrating multimedia and interactive tools to enhance student learning and success.

Our priority programs include:

  • Online Teaching Certification Seminar
  • Quality Course Reviews
