Serving the Texas State faculty, the Instructional Design staff assists faculty in their pursuit of effective teaching practices. Our focus is on maximizing student learning through the application of instructional technologies using principles of instructional design. We design and develop technology-enhanced instruction and assist others to do so. This process requires an understanding of the learner, the context, instructional goals, learning theory, instructional strategies, evaluation, and technological capabilities.

We offer the following services:

• Online course development and maintenance for programs
• Consulting on online/hybrid course design and evaluation
• Consulting on technology integration
• Pedagogy and technology workshops
• Assistance with the design and development of technology-based projects (via the GIT program)
• Adobe Connect support
