What’s a designer to do if the institution makes a change, or if the particular LMS does not meet the needs of the course design? This session will discuss a model used where content is kept separate from structure, allowing the maximum flexibility in use of the LMS while at the same time keeping the content free of the traditional LMS structure. Stevie Rocco, Communications Support Coordinator for the PSU Online initiative and the Penn State World Campus.
