Weekly Schedule
The Weekly Schedule document is a weekly learning schedule that provides the student with weekly learning outcomes and more detail on assessments. This document must be created in addition to the Course Outline.
Use the Weekly Schedule template below to develop Weekly or Module Learning Objectives and organize learning activities, resources and assessments for each week in the course as applicable.
The Weekly provides guidance on measurable Weekly or Module Learning Objectives, and aligning them with weekly assessments, activities and resources.
The Weekly Schedule template has been designed to be AODA-compliant for accessibility, as well as compliant with the Quality Matters framework. Please use this Weekly Schedule template to frame the course prior to the Brightspace development phase.
The Weekly Schedule complements the Course Outline by providing the following:
- The Section Information that indicates the instructor contact information, room number, class day(s) and time(s), etc.; these details will be available in ACSIS 2-3 weeks before the course delivery, so those parts of the template can be left blank until then.
- Learning Resources state the required resources from the course outline as well as the optional resources that are intricately related to several weeks of course content. Resources that are specific to one week or module of content should be provided in the learning schedule and/or the weekly content.
- Evaluation Breakdown that indicates individual assessments (e.g., assignments) by name, their relative value towards the overall course grade, and what Course Learning Requirements (CLRs) they validate (whereas the Course Outline only gives broad assessment categories such as what all of the assignments together are worth and what learning outcomes they collectively validate).
- Learning Schedule that gives a weekly breakdown of topics (lesson titles) and outcomes or subtopics, learning activities, assessments due (by name, number, and percentage weight–all adding up to 100%), resources (e.g., textbook readings by page numbers), and CLRs informed by each lesson.
- Other Important Information, including course policies and student responsibilities specific to the section (e.g., late assignments, extension requests, attendance, general notes on assessments, etc.).
