I've taught for several schools, and multiple topics outside of schools such as welding, diving, sailing, etc. While this experience has shown me that it is not possible or feasible to have every course or module follow the same patterns, I have experienced feedback from students expressing appreciation that courses within the same set follow similar frameworks. The challenge comes in with contemporary degree paths, do ALL courses utilize the same template initially, do we split out Gen-Ed from the 'core' courses and allow each it's own template, or does each course get it's own in it's entirety?
