Education Homework
Part I
Identify a need (such as new equipment, expanding curriculum, change in procedures, and so forth) that you want to address through the instructional curriculum you will create for your class project. You also provided a rationale concerning why the problem or need exists, outlined a goal for the project, and proposed instructional strategies. Each week is a building block as we move through the stages for planning instructional design to address the identified need. The purpose of this homework is to document the planning process. Use the Internet to locate information that you believe will assist you with your project.
Task
Write a 2 to 4 pages paper in which you:
o Develop a needs analysis for the identified need.
o Determine the learner characteristics for the identified need.
o Create a minimum of three instructional objectives. Write one objective from each of the following domains for the identified need: cognitive, behavioral, and affective.
o Create a procedural analysis flowchart that visually depicts your project, using Excel, Visio, or one of their equivalents such as OpenOffice or Dia. In the flowchart, identify the starting points, decision steps, and ending points related to the learning task. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the required page length. You may also find MS Office diagram templates useful, or you may search for free template downloads.
Part II
In the Project Analysis and Instructional Objectives homework, you developed the instructional objectives for your project. Building on this, you will create strategies that support the identified objectives and content. For this week's homework, you will develop instructional strategies, delivery strategies, and the learner-related sequence.
Task
Write a 6 to 8 pages paper in which you:
o Outline the learner-related sequencing related to your design strategy, including the sequence, description, and related objective.
o Determine three instructional learning strategies that clearly correlate with the learning objectives and instructional content created in the Project Analysis and Instructional Objectives homework.
o Determine three examples of instructional strategies that are appropriate based on the learner analysis.
o Create an instructional message for the content. Specify the function, content structure, learner, and task attributes as they relate to your project.
o Select two appropriate delivery strategies based on the instructional objectives. Provide a rationale for your selection.
o Select two appropriate delivery strategies based on the instructional context. Provide a rationale for your selection.
o Select two appropriate delivery strategies based on the instructional strategies. Provide a rationale for your selection.
