Create dynamic online study materials that offer students unique learning opportunities

Online learning has become a core focus for higher education providers, as prospective students – many of them working professionals – seek the flexibility that online study offers. Online learning, rather than being a re-creation of traditional on-campus study, requires a guided approach when it comes to learning design to ensure that students can take advantage of the unique possibilities that online learning offers.

This course explores the emerging field of digital education theory and practice, and the implementation of theory in innovative online learning spaces. The industry is expanding to meet demand, and learning design jobs are projected to grow by 28.6% worldwide in the next five years, and by 12.6% in Australia.

By studying a Graduate Certificate in Education (Innovative Learning Design), you will be well-versed in the core principles of learning and instructional design within a dynamic digital space, and well-equipped to prepare innovative instructional material in the form of online coursework, seminars, workshops and tutorials.

QUT Online will be introducing a comprehensive masters program in Teaching Period 3 2020 that will encompass and extend upon the Education majors.

“Studying through QUT Online, you have access to all that QUT has to offer, but you’re able to engage in self-paced study, with lots of support.” ~ Master of Education – Sue Irvine

Subsidised Commonwealth Supported Places are available for this course.
