Course and Syllabus Design flowcharts

Course and syllabus design flowcharts

These flowcharts show different parts of course planning. They cover needs analysis, course development processes, the learning environment, syllabus design types and evaluation. The resources were made by GoConqr users, so each presents its topic in its own way.

Choosing a starting point

Start with Needs analysis for a definition and examples of sources, including questionnaires and impressions from teachers and students. For a broader view, look at the flowchart on course development processes, which includes needs assessment, goals and objectives.

To focus on evaluation, compare Types of evaluation with Evaluation Roots: Methods. The first sets out categories such as formative and summative evaluation; the second looks at valuing in evaluation.

Studying with the flowcharts

Follow the connections in a chart, then explain the ideas in your own words. If you want another view, switch to a mind map on the unit page; use a quiz there to check your understanding. Choose a topic and follow it through a flowchart.
