Early Redesign

If a substantial redesign of an existing online or hybrid course is necessary prior to contract expiration (contracts run for three years) due to textbook changes or other extenuating circumstances, course designers can receive, with prior approval from Distance Education Faculty Services, the $1,000 redesign fee if a new contract is signed. Written requests for early redesign may be made to cindy.adams@mtsu.edu.
