Instruction • What makes it successful? • Considerations?
Instructional Development • - A systematic process used by instructional developers in the design, development, and evaluation of instructional programs which are effective and/or efficient.
Behavioral Objectives • Information to be learned is specified in terms of the learner’s behaviors. • Learning is measurable only in terms of the behavior produced. • Behaviors must be capable of measurement.
Instructional Design • Term is used interchangeably with Instructional Development. • Information processed in terms of: • Sequence • Mode of presentation • Techniques and media employed
Instructional Presentation • The information that was developed in step 2, is presented to learners.
Instructional Evaluation • Learners evaluated in terms of behavioral objectives from step 1. • If performance is unsatisfactory, steps 1, 2, and 3 are revised until objectives are met.
Dewey’s Problem Solving • Identification of the problem • Formulation of a hypothesis • Collection, organization, and analysis of data • Formulation of conclusions • Verification, reflection, or modification of hypothesis – test consequences
Learning Theories • Tend to be descriptive • B.F. Skinner • Emphasis on effects of external conditions • Rewards, punishments determine future behavior • Do not specifically tell designer what to do to achieve goals
Incorporate theories • These are the core teaching strategies incorporated into instruction plan. • A combination of learning theories may be integrated within instruction plan.
The ID process begins • Questions for the developer: • Learner’s level of readiness? • Most appropriate instructional strategies in terms of learner characteristics/objectives? • What media or other resources most suitable?
The ID process begins • What support is required? • How is achievement of objectives determined? • What revisions necessary if program does not match expectations?
Key elements • Leaner characteristics • For whom is program developed? • What will learners learn or demonstrate? • How is the content or skill best learned? • What is the extent to which learning is achieved?
Comprehensive plan • 1. Identify instructional problems and specify goals. • 2. Examine learner characteristics. • 3. Identify subject content and analyze task components. • 4. Specify the objectives.
Comprehensive plan • 5. Sequence content within each instructional unit for logical learning. • 6. Design instructional strategies so each learner can master objectives. • 7. Plan instructional message and develop instruction. • 8. Develop evaluation instruments. • 9. Select resources to support activities.
