Standardization doesn’t mean exactly the same
Using a cookie-cutter approach can lead to uninvolved courses
Standardization creates opportunities

5. Standardization is Useful
Students spend less time learning the course and more time learning the content
Cognitive load release
Familiarity across courses/program
Implementation of best practices
Reduced development time and energy

6. Personality Standardization doesn’t mean that a course must be dull
A focus on technical and structural details allows for more time to devote to personality in a course
Less time on development of navigation
More time spent putting YOU into your course
