So far all we've gotten is a lesson on how easily technology can mess up, and how annoying it can be while the class goes crazy as you try to get things going.
Formats:
- analog videocassette
- digital video - DVD & computer based
- Internet live and recorded
computer based - can be manipulated and even created by the class or the teacher
Copyright Act of 1976
- allows teachers certain rights to use copyrighted materials for teaching.
Advantages of video -
- motion
- process
- risk free
- dramatization
- affective learning
- rewind and watch again
disadvantages
- fixed pace
- "talking head"
- misinterpretation
- abstract, non visual
- only have point of view of the film maker
You might use video when:
- learning a process or a skill
- dramatizing an event
- observing an event risk free (volcano, tornado)
- understanding different cultures
Classroom video tips:
- market the video, give them teasers to grab their attention prior
- know your audience
- appropriate lengths, topic, appeal
- sights and lights - don't get in the way of the video or too much light
- FOLLOW UP discussion about video, why you watched it, what you were supposed to get from it.
Social Cognitive theory - people learn by watching other people. Trilogy - want to change from behavior B to behavior A. Need a set of 3 people to act out in the following manner : Person 1 exhibiting behavior A, person 2 exhibiting behavior B, and person 3 exhibiting behavior B - but chooses to switch to behavior A (the desired behavior). - watch someone you know (get to know in the way you get to know a movie or TV character) change their behavior from an undesirable one to a desirable one - very powerful.
2. - Next week - peer review.
Task Analysis article is not called the "Task Analysis" article
Abbey Brown - Essentials of Instructional Design, Chapter 06
Sub-Skill Analysis
Hard, tedious and time consuming.
Take the ordinary and the common and to thoroughly examine it - what makes it so? why is it this way? what would happen if? why is it not?
From the book:
- what must the student already know so that with a minimal amount of instruction this task can be learned?= = = lose learner if we try to teach them something they already know - they get bored.
- what is it that a student must already know, which if they didn't know, would make it impossible to learn the subordinate skill?
- what mistake might students make if they were learning this particular skill?
- Analysis Document
- Design Document
- Analysis Document
- Materials Document
Topic irrelevant - design is what's important.
Occam's Razor - quite often the simplest answer is the best. - instructional phase this is important.
Learning Hierarchy
Procedure - steps not hierarchy, so it's not a procedure
Analysis - 3 pages on making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. So you can just imagine how long it's going to have to be for a tattoo with a shark bone.
What is an Entry Behavior? = what you assume they already know and that you do not have to reteach - after analysis you eliminate all the behaviors that you can assume the learners already know. Things that people will have already be able to do to learn this. Behaviors you have to already know to be allowed into the 'class'.
What is a General Characteristic? Characteristics of the target audience - teenagers, 40 year old housewives, Football fanatics, science fiction geeks. that kind of stuff. Superfluous - irrelevant - do not waste your time on these.
Is it worth the time to test it?
List - Entry behaviors.
IE: recognize letters of the behaviors.
Goal : In writing short stories, students will use a variety of sentence types based on sentence purpose and the idea or mood being communicated.
analysis - what does a student need to know to be able to do this? can it be done - will you be able to tell when it's done?
- sentence structure
- how to express a mood
- how to write a short story.
Analysis Document - due October 17th
- Define goal - well crafted sentence.
- Goal Analysis 5 - 15 steps - major steps - must relate tio objective, goal.
- Break it down - sub skill analysis - task analysis - microscopic bits.
- Analyze learners and context.
