Throughout the development of a course, there are numerous due dates. All due dates can be viewed in The Drive. Click on the link below, then click on your program, and finally scroll to find your course.

Welcome! We highly suggest you take some time to look around this website. Explore our commonly used terms and phrases by clicking Resources in the top right hand corner to better understand the build process, and then take some time to look over the Course Build Content Document (we need to get this still). This document breaks down the course build process in chucks. Your first steps with Instructional Designer should include a kick-off meeting organized by your assigned ID where you will work together to discuss the work needed, the strategic approach, and any questions you or they may have.
Once assigned, your ID will reach out to you to kick off your project. Here are some documents to get you started:
Best practice is to organize your content in an editable and accessible document, laid out by course sections and weeks. See our team-developed template: Course Build Weekly Template. (Still Need) If you are working with an ID, they will expect content to be sent to them in this format.
The BRUIN ticketing system is meant to be used for small and quick fixes in courses, i.e. a broken link, a missing image, adding a document, or a textbook change. If you are unsure about whether a request requires a ticket or a CDR, please contact Georgia Scheel, Director of Instructional Design. These requests are sent via email to BRUINSupportServices@bellevue.edu. You may also cc the Instructional Designer who has worked on the course in the past although that does not guarantee he/she will be assigned to the ticket
You are not required to have two separate masters for courses that are taught both in-class and online. All components can be built into one master and the unnecessary items can be hidden depending on which format is being utilized. Your assigned Instructional Designer can offer benefits of both options and work with you to determine which is best for your particular course.
Please refer to the sample course build schedule located in the following link: Drive Development Deadlines. Generally, the schedule from content development through dean approval is three months in duration. If full course content is ready to be delivered at the time of the request, the Instructional Design team can sometimes make exceptions. For specific cases regarding less than a three-month development window, please contact Georgia Scheel, Director of Instructional Design.
