Design. Develop. Deliver.

The UM3D instructional design and technology team assists faculty with creating quality online, on ground, and hybrid courses for the University of Memphis. Our wide array of services will help you reach students wherever they may be.

To do this, we build on the 3 Ds of Instructional Design: Design, Develop, and Deliver

Design

Course Design and Planning

Course design and planning services are at the heart of UM3D. Our instructional designers work one-on-one with course developers to produce quality instruction. This process often begins when:

• a department proposes a new fully online program
• when faculty propose a new online course
• when it is time to redesign an existing online course

UM3D also consults and collaborates with faculty to: 

• integrate student success services
• improve student's online readiness
• research course analytics
• implement universal design for learning (UDL)

Please contact us today at um3d@memphis.edu to begin planning your project.
