Instruction will be in the form of a PowerPoint presentation (as per request of my company).
This will be delivered in a live training session w/ staff members approximately 30-45 minutes long.

Instructional design model
Interface will be utilized in the 2010 version of PowerPoint. The facilitator will explain each area covered in detail, provide real-world examples, and enable learners w/ an open forum for questions.

Learners will watch a couple brief video clips.
A jeopardy game will also be played w/ participants and each winning group will receive a minor tangible prize.

Needs Analysis:
We have a need for our direct care and other staff, we serve individuals w/ developmental disabilities, to understand what a Major Unusual Incident, or MUI, is and is not. I am currently working on creating this for work.

Learning Module:
My learning module will cover the MUI topic from various angles in an effort to reach all levels of staff, which will be required to take this on an annual basis.

Objectives:
Explain what a Major Unusual Incident is.
Provide rules and mandatory reporting timelines.
Give real life examples of an MUI and one that is not an MUI.
Affirm the importance of reporting to protect individuals health and safety.

Intended Audience:
Any staff w/ our agency working w/ the individuals.

Learning Goals:

  1. What is an MUI
  2. What are the reporting rules
  3. What is not an MUI
  4. Categories of MUI
  5. Who needs to report
  6. How to report

Evaluations:

  1. Documentation and reporting.

Interactivity to me means in the simplest terms learning is taking place on an engaging level for the learner at hand. Elearnspace.com points out that includes effective reflection, validation, and yes interaction! But who gets to say what is effective? I think what one considers “effective” can and will vary by learner. It is important to remember the parts of our compound word here…inter…activity…essentially mean to place in action. Ok so keep it simple and connect, engage, and explore with your learner! Make it fun, interesting, and dare I say different! Be willing to go outside your comfort zone, meanwhile helping the learner explore outside theirs as well.

The “Engage me or Enrage me” article really stuck out to me in a few ways. One with younger and younger generations becoming so involved with our minute by minute communication and gaming age, why not find creative ways to include this in the classroom. For example, maybe have kids follow a person of interest on twitter….I’m sure some educators do accept this “new” age challenge…I am just not sure of many in my area…that is k-12 age. The other thing that stuck out to me in that article was about how students desire to be challenged. I find this to be very true. I see it in myself and my own children. They often come home from school saying it was a boring day. That’s frustrating! Challenge your students, they can do it! By this I do not mean overwhelm them…but utilize a variety of creative solutions that are available. Try a different approach use humor.

I realize that often times this starts with administrators who may be deciding what can and can not be implemented, so we just have to continue to advocate to them and anyone in a such position that change is needed and the learners demand it.

This week Grant and I researched John Seely Brown.  We also made an Animoto video.  I am a fan of Animoto median now!  It is fun and easy to use.  I like that it takes your info and makes it into a video for you.  I even paid the $5 to enable unlimited length.  Please see our links below to our research and video!

This week Grant and I will be exploring future theorist John Seely Brown.  We are currently doing research and will be exploring using Animoto to publish our results.

John Seely Brown (also known as JSB) is a researcher who specializes in organizational studies with a particular bent towards the organizational implications of computer-supported activities.

His research interests include the management of radical innovation, digital culture, ubiquitous computing, autonomous computing and organizational learning. JSB is also the namesake of John Seely Brown Symposium on Technology and Society, held at the University of Michigan School of Information. The first JSB symposium in 2000 featured a lecture by Stanford Professor of Law Lawrence Lessig, titled “Architecting Innovation,” and a panel discussion, “The Implications of Open Source Software,” featuring Brown, Lessig and the William D. Hamilton Collegiate Professor of Complex Systems at SI, Michael D. Cohen. Subsequent events were held in 2002, 2006 and 2008.

Brown graduated from Brown University in 1962 with degrees in physics and mathematics. In 1972 he received a PhD from the University of Michigan in computer and communication sciences.

This week I completed research and a voicethread on the ADDIE Model.  This model is more of a project management tool, but many other models are spin-offs of this model.  I learned a lot about how this model can be useful to developers when designing a course, training, etc.  The 5 phases provide for flexibility in planning and delivery based upon goals.

I also enjoyed viewing classmates voicethreads.  It was definitely beneficial for me to learn bout the different instructional design theories and develop my insights and ideas for my own future ventures in instructional design.
