Big Dog and Little Dog's Performance Juxtaposition - 1 views

    • Stuart T. Haines
       
      This is an oddly named but a rich resource regarding instructional design and human performance.  Be sure to click on the navigation tabs - especially the Training tab which nicely summarizes various instructional design models.  If you want to explore things a little deeper, the Knowledge tab has some really thought provoking stuff about what knowledge is, how to acquire it, and how to transfer it.  Don Clark maintains this site.  He states that he's a "Learning Designer and Consultant" and, despite being a freelance kinda guy, he's created a pretty impressive site.  Once you get past all of the ads (just ignore them), I think you'll find the site very useful.

    Every Thursday evening, 8:30 ET, 5:30 PT, there's a great fun live gathering on Twitter called #lrnchat. It's a fast free-for-all organized around a theme, like instructional design, virtual worlds, social learning, or e-learning myths, structured around 3 general questions. Topics will range from instructional design, training, education, etc. Begin by typing #lrnchat into the Twitter search box. If you'd like to get a look at who's likely to be there, and how the conversation will go, you can check out the transcripts. This a great way to be part of a discussion on an educational topic and great opportunity to build your network with other eLearning experts in the field...during the chat the live stream of tweets fly fast and furious!

How to Get the Most Out of Studying | Samford University | Birmingham, Alabama - 1 views

  •  
    Dr. Stephen Chew is a professor and chair of psychology at Samford University in Birmingham, AL. He is a cognitive psychologist with interests in teaching strategies, formative assessment, and cognition & instruction. I have included brief descriptions of his video series below: Video series: "How to study long and hard and still fail… or how to get the most out of studying" Video #1: "Beliefs that make you stupid" 1. Learning is fast. 2. Learning isolated facts (note cards). 3. Fixed mindset. 4. Good at multi-tasking (while studying, i.e. texting, computer breaks, games, etc.) Video #2: Examined a study looking at "levels of processing." Study examines shallow v. deep processing, intent v. incidential exposure, and strict memorization. Group with deep processing (regardless of intent v. incidential) had the highest recall. Shallow = memorization. Deep = understanding, comprehending, applying, visualizing Video #3: Four ideas to achieve deep processing: elaboration (how does this relate?), distinction (how is this similar/different?), personal (how does this relate to experience?), appropriate retrieval and application (how am I expected to use or apply this concept?). Extent of use of each principle depends on professor style! Video #4: Study strategies: Ask questions! (facts [ok], relationships, compare/contrast, apply in new situation, apply to personal experience, etc.). Concept maps (visual learners?), Retrieve info in way teach expects (2 parts: recall without notes, use information). Also discusses note-taking, good highlighting. Video #5: Don't panic/deny failure. Evaluate exam preparation (lecture, required readings, study technique, etc.), review exam with professor, review notes!, talk with professor, develop revised study plan.

It includes information on determining objectives, choosing course materials, outlining course procedures, and choosing methods of instruction-all things that are taken into consideration when creating a lesson plan.
