Creating Formal Course Goals

Before completing this assignment, be sure to work through the resources for Building Course Goals. If you haven't done that yet, do that before continuing here...

In this assignment, you'll download a Word document called Course Goals Template, Fill out the first two sections (General Information & Goals, Results, Outcomes), and then submit the assignment to the instructor.

  • First, download the Course Goals Template.

  • Second, fill out the Goals Template with your online course in mind. Write as many goals as you feel are necessary to give your course structure. Too few goals and you will lose valuable time as you build your course.

  • When you are done, save your document using the following format:
    lastname_first initial_u1_course_goals

    For example, if your name was Mary Smith, you'd save your document as:
    smith_m_u1_course_goals.

  • Submit the file using the file by using the "Browse..." button below to navigate to your file on your computer, then hit "Upload" to send the file to your instructor. If you have any questions on how to do this, feel free to contact the course instructor with questions.
Good luck! Once you're done with this, go back to the main course window and continue working elsewhere in the first unit! Nice work!
