CDE-Developed Courses & Programs

The CDE works with selected UT Arlington faculty to develop and deliver award winning Internet-based courses. As a faculty member working on a CDE-developed course or program, you will work with a team of instructional designers, media specialists, graphic artists, and technical and administrative staff who will be with you every step of the way during the production and delivery of your Center-developed course.

There are numerous and varied steps that are involved in the creation of an online course. Even after the initial production is complete and the course is deployed, there is always fine-tuning to be done. We have outlined the course production and the course revision processes for you so that you can get some idea of what is required.

For more information about CDE-developed courses, please contact Pete Smith at 817.272.5727.

Training: Distributed Education, WebCT & Other Technologies

In cooperation with UT Arlington Libraries and OIT, CDE also provides to University faculty and staff general training about various online education tools and software technologies. UT Arlington’s primary online learning management system, WebCT, is supported by an extensive schedule of training in this and other software tools related to distributed education. Please contact Scott Massey at 817.272.5727 with questions or for any additional training information.
