Beginning Python - Design Document
Design & Development - Artifact 1
I took EDTECH 512: Online Course Design before I took EDTECH 503: Instructional Design so it was a rapid introduction to the concept of instructional design, an entire field of study I had no prior exposure to. The structure provided by the template in the course was very helpful in giving a framework to build the online course around. This artifact provides the design I used to develop the Beginning Python Course in EDTECH 512 which will be featured elsewhere in this portfolio.

Beginning Python - Online Course
Leadership - Artifact 2
I developed this online course as the final project in EDTECH 512. This course intends to introduce learners to the Python programming language and the core concepts of computational thinking. While this artifact does not demonstrate leadership from its content alone the method I chose to implement the artifact hopefully does. This course represents a significant amount of time and effort although I am not sure that it is readily apparent by its appearance.

Evaluation & Assessment - Artifact 3
In this artifact I compared and contrasted two online courses that covered similar topics to the course I was developing in EDTECH 512, Beginning Python. The Quality Matters and the OSCQR standards provided a formal structure to assess each course and simultaneously informed me how I should attempt to design my instructional unit in the course. This was helpful in articulating what I should aim for in the course I was developing.
