ETAP 623 Fall 2024
The ETAP 623 class (offered online at https://brightspace.albany.edu/d2l/home/1095199) will use this wiki space to work on our ID project. Each of you will create a mini-course, deploying your knowledge and skills learned about the principles and processes of instructional design. It is our goal to carry out authentic instructional design and development to produce mini-courses for real use, as Open Educational Resources (OER) for teacher learning, improvement, and innovation.
- Please review the following statement regarding the open access nature of KNILT and confirm that you agree to share your instructional design work in this space: https://forms.gle/GSCFo2WHEV5kpuCu5
- Even after confirming, you still have the choice to request that your pages be removed from this site at a later point, such as after your class is completed.
- If you want to prevent your work from being publicly visited, please email your instructor directly.

- It is always a good idea to first draft your text in a word processing package and then save it outside of the wiki. Back-ups are always handy to have!
