Will the redesign be sustained now that the grant period is over?

The redesigned World Literature course will continue to be offered, because it saves resources and it's demonstrably a success in the area of student learning. Extension of the methodology to the department's composition courses is the next logical step, though that change is likely still a few years away. Many departments, however, have already seen the benefits of leveraging parts of the redesign--the use of streaming video, submission of writing assignments and portfolio materials primarily via WebCT, automated low-stakes quizzing, etc.--so there's an argument to be made that the redesigned World Literature course has already brought to campus a much heightened awareness of what's possible when technology is used to help students learn.
