the program is designed to help graduate student-faculty teams build expertise in developing online instructional modules grounded in good course design principles and our understanding of how people learn. stem faculty members partner with graduate students or postdocs to design and develop online modules for integration into a course. the teams investigate the use of these modules, collecting data about the effectiveness of the module for promoting student learning. you can view a gallery of past bold projects on the bold website.
