About the Learn Course Template 2020
The Learn Course Template 2020 is available in the links below. All online courses will need to contain the template, or be formatted like it, as described in the UNM-LA Standards for Online Courses. The template makes it easy to provide a uniform and effective framework for our online courses, as well as links to necessary student resources. Our goal is to provide quality online materials that support the needs of both instructors and students.
You can see all sections and features of the new template before you import it into your course. To do this, visit the UNM-LA Sample Course Materials site, which is built using the template. It can be found in your Learn My Courses list. If you don’t find it, please ask the Instructional Technologist for access. This course site also contains samples of online courses from this campus, which we hope will help you see new possibilities for designing your online class. General resources for teaching online can also be found here.
The template is only imported to your course once, and then gets copied when you do a “Course Copy” for subsequent semesters. Faculty are encouraged to edit the template language and items, once it is imported, to suit their course needs. For support in importing or using the new template or its sections, please contact the Instructional Technologist at sschauer@unm.edu.
