Help! I'm assigned to teach a new course in one week!?

 Fall semester will soon be starting across the University of Minnesota system and our campuses will welcome new students and instructors. In collaboration with local units, our Academic Technology Services team offers instructional support to instructors at all UMN campuses.

One of the course design challenges that the instructional designers on our team have observed is that while instructors typically have a high degree of customization of their courses, instructors who are new to the University are not sure where to start or what resources are available to them. Our observations are supported by Davis, McGuire, & Poulin (2022). The following infographic seeks to provide a starting point.
