"I helped develop a new accounting course when I worked at another university. We had eight people working to develop the course, and I and one other person were responsible for outlining the key areas of learning and competencies for the course. We developed these first, and then the rest of the team used them to create the content, syllabus, and outline of the course. We were able to get student responses after the course was offered and made changes based on their thoughts. It was a unique experience and helped me learn how to better work with others to improve our students' experience."
