Suggested Learning Track: Pick one of the following tracks ( Foundations, Front-end Development, Design, User Science, Server-side Development, Professional Practice ) and explain why this course should fall under that track.
Write a summary of the course communicating to students what they will learn. This would be included in the college catalog, and as such should be technology agnostic so printed materials do not become outdated as technologies change.
List the name and number of courses student should have taken before enrolling in this course.

Use these action verbs to create competencies http://edtech.clas.pdx.edu/presentations/frr99/blooms.htm. Competencies must be written so they can be measured. "Learn to use semantic markup" is a poorly written competency, because there is no way to evaluate it; it's too broad. "List the benefits of using semantic markup", however, can be definitively measured as it requires a quantifiable action.
Divide course competencies into sub-topics. Each competency should be connected to an assignment, and/or an exam question so that educators can evaluate a student's mastery of the subject.

Assignment description clearly outlining requirements and expectations for the project
List any templates, examples, sitemaps, wireframes, or other support files you’d like to include with this assignment
Create an evaluation rubric for each assignment that lists the criteria by which the project should be graded. This will make it easy for educators to evaluate student work, and sets clear expectations for student work.
Rubric Development Tool | What's a rubric?
Optionally, it would be extremely helpful to include learning modules (short lessons that address a sub-topic of the competencies table). See the learning modules template for guidance.
