Templates for online courses
What are the templates?
The Instructional
Development Group has developed these templates, which are linked, formatted
Web pages that allow you to create your own online course web pages without
having to spend time linking and formatting the site yourself.
The templates consist
of 13 blank, but linked and formatted, modules. By typing or pasting in
your own course content, you can more easily create an entire online course
or web pages supporting a hybrid or face-to-face course.
What kind of templates are available?
The Instructional Development
Group has developed course templates
based on the Instructional
Design Intensive Workshop
and also Foothill's online Children's
Literature course.l
If you would like
to customize one of these templates for your class or have an idea for
a different template style all together, contact Instructional Development.
How can I get the templates?
You can download the zipped template
files from the table above, or
you can contact the Instructional
Development Group for a CD
containing them.
How to use the templates
To use these templates
you must have an HTML editor such as Macromedia's Dreamweaver, Netscape
Composer, Adobe Go Live or Microsoft Front Page. You can type or paste
your content onto the page and view the pages in a browser such as Netscape
or Internet Explorer.
Where to begin
Each template contains
web pages for creating an entire course of 13 modules. The course home
page for each template is called "index.html".
Changing the look
Each of these template
styles is defined by a style sheet: "basic1.css" for the idi_style
site, "style_child_lit.css"for the child_lit_style. These can
be easily modified. If you know how to use a style sheet, you can modify
it yourself or contact the Instructional Development Group.
