Abstract:	In today's changing environment, faculty are searching for ways to improve student learning outcomes in both face-to-face and virtual environments. Transparency in learning and teaching requires a course design that focuses not only on the how but also on the why. When combined with the concepts of backward course design, transparency in learning and teaching provides students with a solid framework for success. Often, students are searching for real-world connections to help them understand the value of their course activities. The authors of this current study will discuss how the “principles of backward design and transparency in learning and teaching” have been used in the introductory business course to enhance student learning and satisfaction. The authors of this study will also focus on applying these theories to the assignment delivery of group projects in a fully online Principles of Management course. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
