PHYS30001 Cardiovascular Health is a content driven subject taught in semester 2 of each year to third year undergraduate students (enrolment 2020=384). The course design is in three self- contained themes, including teaching and assessment. In the transition to online, the design of each theme was driven by the preferences of the theme lead and provided consistent content delivery style within each theme, but style varied between themes. This allows us to evaluate the student perception of different online teaching styles. Data indicates that while there continues to be a demand for live lectures, when designing online learning videos, interaction in videos enhances student perceived quality of learning.
