Development of learning resources

Learning resources or course materials include the course specification, introductory information, course modules and assessment details and guides as well as your course website, web materials and media resources. At USQ, the Distance and e-Learning Centre (DEC) provides support for the development of flexible learning resources including digital, web and print materials. USQ also provides templates and assistance with its Integrated Course Environment System (ICE). As part of developing your course materials, you will need to check for institutional requirements related to course materials production, submission and publication.
