    Just as a message to you about the evaluation, I feel that you are at a disadvantage (before I begin the review process) because you did not use Wiki and it is harder for me to navigate through FrontPage because I am unfamiliar with it.

(Expert) Web Design: *no info downloaded for this content area on the rubric* mjm Layout: I think that the layout could use some tweaking to make it more appealing to student use. I think that if I worked with the site for longer than a day I would get used to the location of the links, and be able to navigate properly. The best page that you have is your first page that opens the lesson set; this one engages me in learning, but the other sites do not make me want to follow through with the exercises and participate (Novice) Navigation: I would have liked to see more internal links for getting back to the main page, especially since I was unfamiliar with the web-design. I was able to use the back button to navigate, however, if I got too many pages away I had to re-open from your main dana page.

  • Robert Gagne, widely considered as the father of the discipline of instructional design, observed in Conditions of Learning (1965) that all instruction is not equal and that different types of instruction are required for different learning outcomes

  • Time-on-Task Equals More Learning
    • Michaela Minore
       
      Time on Task is helping me to understand ETC 545 and learn to better assist my own education via the web and a shared-learing environment. I have also been given wonderful resources to aid in my discovery!
  • This simply means that as students spend more time interacting with information and practicing skills, the more proficient, accomplished, and confident they will become
  • Learning is intrinsically rewarding and enjoyable. If we design great experiences, students will spend more time interacting with the course content and developing more complex, networked knowledge structures and efficient behaviors.
