Preface and Purpose
The instructional modules contained on this site were designed and developed entirely within the Wayne State University Department of Health Care Sciences under the direction of Fredrick D. Pociask. All modules are part of our departmental Open-Courseware initiative and can be accessed for free under a Creative Commons License.
The primary goals of the Wayne State University Department of Health Care Sciences Open-Courseware initiative are to design and develop multidisciplinary course modules that address identified instructional needs across multiple departmental courses, to facilitate the use of instructional technology in authentic teaching environments, and to promote instructional technology research.
The Wayne State University Department of Health Care Sciences Open-Courseware modules were designed using formal instructional design principles and were developed to function as blended learning solutions. That is, the instructional modules offer flexible, asynchronous access for existing courses, while on-site laboratories provide purposeful, hands-on laboratory experiences.
