Course Delivery Modes & Teaching Approaches
Optimize the way you deliver your courses.
UBC has adopted an expanded range of course delivery modes that provide more options for flexible course design and delivery. These delivery modes are available to be included as activity types in the Student Information Services Centre and provide a range of options for how instructors might configure their classes across in-person and online spaces.
The following information provides an overview of the different modes of delivery now available along with some considerations for how the learning technologies available might be relevant in each mode.
General UBC Resources
| Resource | Use |
| Learner-Centered Syllabus Toolkit (CTLT) | The Learner-Centered Syllabus Toolkit provides sample language that instructors can use to help describe the delivery mode of their course to students in order to effectively communicate expectations and help learners understand what they need to do to succeed in the course. |
| Designing for Accessibility: An Introduction to Universal Design for Learning | This Arts ISIT resource provides an overview of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and shares strategies for how you can use this approach to help assure your course materials and activities are accessible the widest possible range of learner abilities, operating within the widest possible range of environments, conditions, and circumstances. |
