Instructional Design & Online Learning

Full Tilt Ahead makes online learning decisions based on best practices in pedagogically sound design, centralized strategy, creative engagement, technology integration, and inclusive teaching.

Pedagogically Sound Design

Significant learning experiences come first

Creating significant learning experiences is chief among our considerations for pedagogically sound design regardless of in-person, online, or hybrid teaching models. While we love technology, it comes second to ensuring that we always take a student-centered approach to learning rather than a content-centered approach.

FTA continues to help the University of Virginia's Center for Teaching Excellence lead the way in helping faculty to build pedagogically sound courses using c3Design.

Online & Hybrid Learning Strategy

Build a centralized online learning strategy

Many of our clients have been wading into the world of online learning for several years but have not yet developed a centralized online learning strategy for their institution. We work with clients to build a custom infrastructure for consistent course design and development, orientation and training, faculty development and compensation, compliance, service models, workflows, and tool integration.

With growing capabilities for data mining, we also help clients learn how to apply learning analytics at institutional, programmatic, and course levels.

We like off-the-wall ideas

Our team has a hard-to-find mix of instructional design, software development, and graphic design experience, and we love coming together to help clients experiment with innovative ideas for student engagement. We want to explore your boldest ideas with you, from engaging interactive courses to simulating in-person experiences with custom virtual lab simulations.

Designing courses for everyone

That means that providing significant learning experiences requires reaching all your students.
