A fully online governance course for UNSW Canberra

Governance in policy systems resists being taught as a slide deck. UNSW Canberra needed it fully online on Moodle for public-sector students, without losing the substance that makes the subject matter.

The challenge

Governance is shaped by relationships, judgement and complex systems. Converting source material into a sequence of slides wouldn't give public-sector learners enough opportunity to examine decisions or apply ideas.

UNSW Canberra needed a fully online course that retained the depth of the subject while supporting active, student-centred learning.

The approach

Curio moved through discovery, blueprinting, detailed design and development. The course combined interactive tasks and multimedia with assessment across synchronous and asynchronous contexts.

What Curio delivered

  • Discovery and course blueprint
  • Detailed learning and assessment design
  • Interactive online activities
  • Multimedia learning content
  • Synchronous and asynchronous learning components
  • Assessment appropriate to fully online delivery
  • Implementation in Moodle

The impact

UNSW Canberra received a complete online governance course designed around participation and application rather than passive content consumption. Client feedback recognised the quality of the design, content, delivery, flexibility and professionalism of the team.
