My greatest concerns in creating an online curriculum unit are figuring out how to develop a unit which engages and challenges and then how to accurately assess student progress -- from a distance.
Elements of teaching 2Ddesign in a traditional classrooms include pencils, sketchpads, and a bulletin board for critiques. This can carry over to a digital format to benefit all students, if they have full access to necessary tools.
My primary concern relating to what I've expressed above is access to tools. How will students access scanners, digital cameras, web cams and all the associated illustrating and font software?
Students will be posting their work digitally. Will image quality be enough for me and other students to tell how well they are doing?
There may be a lot of time spent in the class acquainting students with the hardware and software. Everyone should post images at the same resolution for fair critique. All students must have access to the same tools for assessment to be equitable, also.
