Job search: course designing

B

Guys,

So the bleak period of job searches (bleaker for international folk, but am ready to relocate anywhere in Europe or the States) has begun. Many placed ask for sample course designs. I was wondering if you guys had any insights on these questions -

1. If not specified, and merely asked to design courses you would be 'willing to teach' would you design something for a course they already have (a bit silly) or suggest a new course?

2. How would you go about it? Would you look at existing similar courses in other unis and design something on those lines?

3. How detailed would you get?

Many thanks!!
