ITDS provides instructional design services for faculty teaching across all educational delivery modalities at Montclair State University. Instructional designers support faculty with pedagogical and technological considerations which arise throughout the course design process, from initial course mapping and curriculum design to course management throughout the semester. We also provide multimedia services!

Faculty are welcome to join us for workshops and one-on-one consultations to learn more about these tools and the instructional strategies that can be used in conjunction with them.

These include workshops, online courses emphasizing pedagogical approaches, our annual conferences, and many special events.
