Formerly the Office of Learning Design and Technology
Working at the forefront of QU’s education strategies, we think creatively about educational journeys.
In partnership with faculty experts, we're dedicated to designing learning experiences that resonate with today’s digitally-native learners. Our services are extensive, from strategizing program structures to crafting detailed course designs, from producing engaging learning media to implementing evidence-based, inclusive teaching strategies and integrating the latest technologies in online and traditional face-to-face educational environments.
Our advocacy extends beyond these services as we champion the development of a robust infrastructure that fosters the creation of innovative, effective learning experiences by reimagining physical and digital learning spaces and constantly exploring the next frontier of emerging technology.
Through these efforts, we aim to equip educators and learners with the tools and insights needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving world, ensuring that our educational approaches remain dynamic, inclusive, and forward-thinking.

How We Can Help
Our services include expert-led Course Reviews that adhere to Quality Matters and QU standards, offering actionable insights for educational excellence, Course Redesign to refresh and improve existing curricula, and Course Design for creating engaging new courses or transitioning them online. Additionally, our Learning Media service enhances course materials with specialized media and tools. We also offer services for Program Design/Operations and Programming and Training, which focus on developing sustainable and efficient educational programs and customized faculty development on specific topics using evidence-based practices.
We ensure inclusivity in our work through Accessibility Reviews that optimize courses for Universal Design for Learning.
Together, these services aim to improve teaching and learning experiences, promote inclusivity, and support the development of robust, effective educational programs.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) Resources
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has rapidly transformed the landscape of a university education, introducing groundbreaking opportunities and challenges for institutions, educators, and students alike. Universities globally are adapting to this technological evolution by developing specialized AI programs, incorporating AI tools into teaching methodologies, and conducting research that pushes the boundaries of what AI can achieve.
QILT has created an AI resources page with links to articles exploring the latest developments in AI technology within the educational sector, highlighting its impact on teaching, learning, and institutional administration. Also included on the page is a link to our AI in the Classroom Hub which contains information and resources for ensuring our courses reflect the latest developments, ethical considerations, and practical applications of AI.
