Instructional Design

Are you new to instructional design (ID) or already experienced with the process?

The Education Technology Services (ETS) team guides faculty who are new to instructional design through a people-first design approach to help them create a course and publish the modules in Articulate Rise.

For faculty who are familiar with the ID process and have already built a course, ETS will help package and publish the materials in Rise, too.

ETS provides robust support for creating engaging eLearning courses through our Instructional Design services using tools like Articulate Rise, Storyline, and Quercus. These platforms enable us to enhance your content with interactive elements and ensure compatibility across devices and learning environments.

Rise 360 allows for easy integration of interactive components, while Storyline 360 offers advanced interactivity and multimedia features. Quercus, the University of Toronto’s Learning Management System, supports seamless delivery and tracking of your modules within the academic context. 

Partnering with the ETS team gives you access to our instructional design expertise. Our team collaborates closely with you to design courses and modules that meet your learning objectives.
