CurriculumDesign at DeakinCurriculum Design is a co-design process that enables the intentional and systematic embedding of our DeakinDesign Principles and Practices.
Curriculum Design at Deakin University
Curriculum Design at Deakin is guided by the DeakinDesign Principles and Practices. The DeakinDesign Principles and Practices are who we are and what we do; they were created through a practice-led and evidence-informed approach and reflect how we design teaching and learning experiences at Deakin.
DeakinDesign
The DeakinDesign Principles underpin the DeakinDesign Pathways, which put the Principles to work through a Targeted Pathway (focused on tailored and responsive support for teaching teams), a Transition Pathway (focused on unit-level uplift) and a Transformation Pathway (focused on course-wide curriculum and assessment transformation).
Want to know what this all looks like in practice? Explore the tiles below to find out more about the Principles and Practices, the Pathways Framework and illustrations of how the Principles have been applied in different disciplines through the DeakinDesign Seeding Grants.
