Univ. of Missouri - Sociology Course Design

Course Design

Problem-Based Learning Environment

This course focuses on the fundamentals of sociology and is largely comprised of freshman/sophomore non-major, college students. My goal as the interaction designer was to construct a learning environment based on modern instructional design theories. The learning system is largely based on Cognitive Flexibility Theory and is supported in a hypertext (web-based) environment.

The environment is designed to promote restructured learning from case to case by alternating the contexts in which similar problems occur.
