Chapter 1 Designing e-learning
Definition of e-learning E-learning is the use of electronic technologies to create learning experience.
The Range of Online Experience A course with some on-line elements A Hybrid Course A course taught entirely on line
Varieties of e-learning 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Standalone courses (taken by solo learner) Games and Simulations Mobile Learning Social Learning Virtual Classroom Course
What is instructional design? ID includes • Goals • Teaching strategies • Content • Technology choices
General Steps 1. Identify your main goals (Goals of the course- based on standards, curriculum- ) 2. 3. 4. Analyze learners’ need (what type of students? ) Identify what to teach (based on your experience and #1) Set learning objectives (Goals of the lesson- more specific than goals) 5. Identify prerequisites 6. Pick the approach to meet each objective (general approach for each objective (e, g, . Group/individual Written/practical active/passive ) 7. Decide the teaching sequence of your objectives 8. Create objects to accomplish objectives A. B. C. Create tests Select learning activities Choose media
1 - Identify your main goals Types of goals 1. Financial 2. Intellectual (educational) 3. Costumers 4. Employees 5. Operations (improving efficiency) 6. Reputation
2 -Analyze learners’ need 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. Motivation for learning Psychomotor skills Attitude and mindset Mental discipline (ability to recognize and respond wisely) Communication skills Social skills Talents and intelligences Media preferences Background knowledge and experience Learning conditions Locus of control Style of prior education Digital fluency
3 - Identify what to teach (Education) 1. Identify essentials (curriculum and standards) 2. Analyze the gap between real and ideal performance (what they need for their future job) - [Design for how People Learn (2012), by Julie Dirksen. ] 3. Analyze How people learn (learning theories) Telling Ain't Training 2 nd edition. By Harold D. Stolovitch, Erica Keeps 4. Ask “those who should know” (best practices – online resources BUT don’t blindly copy) 5. Analyze critical incidents (academic failures) 6. Don’t let the “content committee” decide (don’t blindly follow them. Rely on your own experience and abilities)
3 - Identify what to teach (other organizations) 1. Identify essentials (give them a task to see what they need and what they don’t need– give them resources and let them work together , let them get help from the expert and the internet) 2. Analyze the gap between real and ideal performance (difference between novice and expert behavior, between successful and unsuccessful work) 3. Analyze How the work is done (goals, jobs, tasks, decisions, and actions) 4. Ask “those who should know” (those who have directly observed the learners or workers) 5. Analyze critical incidents (work incidents) 6. Don’t let the “content committee” decide (don’t blindly follow them)
4 - Set learning objectives Very important (from objectives we identify prerequisites, learning activities, and tests) Has 3 parts • Intent (What will be learned) • Learners (target learner)? ? ? • Prerequisites (skills, knowledge, attitudes) • Intent = The student will understand the concept of the Derivative. • Learners = 8 th grades, students who already finished their ch 6 projects. • Prerequisites= Given 4 theorems that he/she has never seen, the student will formulate a proof for each theorem by drawing on elements from previous sources and will rate them together to form a pattern proof— with 80% accuracy.
Good Objectives • Clear • Specific • Worthy
Primary and secondary objectives Primary • Create (has to be original; not from scratch; could be an object, a concept, a plan) • Decide (Yes/No- Accept/Reject- How many- How much- which one - going beyond following procedures / making judgment) • Do (performing a procedure without having to make decisions, procedures could be mental or physical) Secondary • Know (recall, knowing how to find, knowing how things work) • Believe (the learner is convinced that…) • Feel (how students will feel about…)
Question • Answering a multiple choice test is a “Know” or a “Decide” objective? • Create a website account using Weebly. Is this a “Create” or a “Know” objective?
Synonyms Primary • Create (build, design, draw, compose, synthesize, author, pen, conceive, formulate, invent) • Decide (choose, pick, select, rate, rank, prioritize, vote, resolve, judge, conclude, differentiate, discriminate, filter) • Do (perform, operate, act, construct, build, carry out, accomplish, arrange, complete) Secondary • Know (understand, recall, remember, appreciate, be informed, comprehend, recite, cite) • Believe (have faith that, trust, rely on, accept, affirm, think that, be convinced, expect, deem, maintain, presume, assume) • Feel (sense, suffer, experience emotions)
5 - Identify prerequisites • Identify your high value objectives • You may need to create a lower-level objective to serve as pre-req for the top level • Identify what each objective requires • List prerequisites • Eliminate unnecessary objectives • Say “no” to “know” objectives • Don’t forget feel objectives
6 - Pick the approach to meet each objective 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Standalone e-learning Games and simulations Virtual-classroom e-learning Physical-classroom learning Coaching (mentoring-tutoring) Referring to learning resources Searching online resources Interacting with a social network Letting learners find the solution on their own Changing external factors (in some organizations, often, the best way to meet an objective is not learning or information- Campus online security)- 11. Blending if necessary
7 - Decide the teaching sequence of your objectives • Bottom up (teach basics first then show the whole picture) • Top down (show the whole picture first, then teach details) • Sideways (learners choose how to start and continue)
8 - Create objects to accomplish objectives A learning object is a chunk of electronic content that can be accessed individually and that completely accomplishes a single learning objective and can prove it.
Learning Objects • May contain text, graphics, animation, video, voice, music, and other media • Can be accessed individually through a menu, search engine, or just a Next button • Appears to the learner to be separate from other objects • The completely accomplishes a single learning objective • Contains the means to verify that the objective was met. • Can serve multiple purposes and may contain other learning objects.
Turn objectives into learning objects • Each objective leads us to create a learning object that completely accomplishes the learning objective and can prove it. • The objective is the starting point, the end point, and a constant reference when designing the object. • Anything that does not contribute to accomplishing this objective should be omitted immediately.
Create Tests • Tests clarify the objectives • You can use tests to pre-test learners • Test is the best guide to designing learning activities • Tests can serve as learning activity • Tests can guide you in the development of content
Select learning activities
Select learning activities To accomplish learning objectives, we typically require 3 types of learning activities: • Absorb • Do • Connect
“Absorb” activities • Reading text • Watching animation • Listening to narration Learner is physically passive but mentally active
Examples of Absorb • • Presentations Readings Stories by the teacher Field trips
“Do” activities • Practice a procedure • Play a game • Answer questions The learner practices, explores, and discovers
Examples of Do • Practice by applying their skills • Discovery (experimenting and exploring) • Games and simulations ( discovery in a safe environment, gain insight, and confidence)
“Connect” activities Connect what they are learning to their work, their lives, and their prior knowledge
Examples of Connect • Ponder (stop and think about the subject more broadly and deeply) • Questioning (let learners ask questions and obtain answers to their individual questions) • Stories told by students (requires learners to share their experiences) • Job aids (checklists, manuals, glossaries, calculators, templates, models) • Research (identify learning resources on their own)
Summary of step 8 (creating objects) 1. Start with objectives 2. Consider 3 types of activities (Absorb, Do, Connect) 3. For each type describe the actual experience 4. Specify the order of the activities
Examples
Appropriate activities for your type of objective
Choose Media • Each object may require a different mix of text, graphics, sound, voice, music, animation, and video. • What medium is essential to accomplish my objective? • What medium could you not do without?
