Course Design & Development

SingHealth Academy aims to promote teaching excellence and effective learning by developing online curricula that are interactive, engaging and supportive of active learning.

This eLearning approach can also reduce time spent on classroom didactic lessons, thus allowing learners to fully optimise face-to-face interactions with educators.

What We Do

The team provides consultation services to educators who request advice on appropriate learning design methods to use, and ways to integrate technology to complement their pedagogy and improve learning outcomes. Following this, the team develops educational course content that is customised to the educator's needs.

The team will work closely with educators to design, develop and implement the course through the following:

1. Perform Content Analysis: The team performs content analysis to redesign classroom teachings into online or mobile learning courses.
   
   
2. Review Learning Objectives: The team identifies the learning objectives in existing teaching approaches and suggests new ideas, solutions and blended approaches to enhance the teaching and learning experience.
   
   
3. Create Prototype: The team develops interactive coursewares or packages and outlines the content in a meaningful and effective ways for learners.
   
   
4. Implement Course: The developed interactive course packages are tested and uploaded to SingHealth eLearning Management System. This portal allows educators to upload learning materials and create assessments. Learners can use the portal to access their learning content anytime, anywhere, using laptops and mobile devices.
