How are you? For the past 4 weeks I wrote about POWTOON but in this entry I will write about Instructional Design.
What is Instructional Design?
- Creating instructional experiences which make the acquisition of knowledge & skill more efficient & appealing.
- It mixes Behaviourist & Constructivist learning tools.
Instructional Design in CALL
Did you still remember my
entry regarding CALL? I hope you do. Thus, instructional design involves creating
computer courseware for learning. It acts as a SUPPLEMENT or SUPPORT to lesson
but not a COMPLETE replacement.
However, there are lots of
step that should be considered before we make any courseware. We should analysis
the importance first. Not only that, we should know and be aware of the
learners need. We should do the need analysis before design the courseware for
the students or even for the teachers.
For your information, there
are lots of model that will assist in making the courseware. In my last class,
our lecturer explained about ADDIE model.
Basically, from my own
understanding, instructional design is creating a tool to help the students to
understand the lesson better in attracting way. It shows that in this modern
era, lesson is not only whiteboard and chalk and technology can help to improve
the lesson.
So, for the next class, we
need to present another model. Wish us luck! I will put the notes regarding the
others models in next week entry.
