1. A system for providing guided instructional design, comprising:
a) at least one processor; and
b) at least one computer storage media in communication with the at least one processor, the at least one computer storage media configured to store information about at least one course;
c) wherein, for each course, the at least one processor is configured to present at least one course design module, the at least one course design module being configured to present at least one predetermined course component to a first user, the at least one course component being configured to:
i. present at least one course parameter to the first user, the at least one course parameter being related to at least one course competency, the at least one course competency being a goal for the course;
ii. receive at least one first input from the first user in relation to the at least one course parameter; and
iii. generating at least one modified course parameter, the at least one modified course parameter being a list of course objectives, the list of course objectives suggesting certain course objectives to the first user based on the at least one course competency and at least one educational design element;
wherein the at least one course design module is further configured to generate a customized course framework for that particular course based on the at least one first input and the at least one educational design element.
