The importance of instructional design training and an enhanced learning environment for students is well known to all colleges of the university.

Create content items to present a variety of learning activities to enhance student learning.
Deliver authentic assessments to evaluate student knowledge in a variety of meaningful ways.
Use Blackboard communication tools to promote interactions between the student and instructor, the student and course content, and the student and peers.
Effectively utilize Blackboard Collaborate™ tools to increase student engagement by providing a means to share and create knowledge.
The course was an overall success and will continue on a periodic basis as a part of the developmental projects of the Tamkeen team. Special thanks to Mohammed Jarallah, Training Manager, and Dr. Khaled M. Mohanna, E-Learning Team Manager, for their holistic support.
