These kinds of designs are excellent for learning discrete bits of information, practicing simple and basic behaviors, building complex psychomotor skills, and learning to use applications or processes that require a narrow, prescriptive approach
instruction that attempts to control the learner’s responses and environment
acquisition
learning goal is enculturation
Enculturation results from interactions among people, objects, and culture in a collective effort to solve problems, create products, or perform service
Carrying on a dialogue tells the student that she/he is an equal member of the community.
applicable to their needs when they need them, motivating learning
This convergence of tools, practice, and theory enables teachers and students to discuss, plan, create, and implement unique strategies for providing instruction within a unique environment.
enablers
Learners are collaborators in the learning process and have an equal role in setting goals.
They make most of the decisions related to what to learn, how to study, and which resources to use.
Teachers pass on information to the learner. The clearer the information the more the learner will acquire.
Evaluation is a critical strategy within traditional learning environments
Teachers focus on interacting at a metacognitive level with the learners. They help students analyze their learning deficits through questioning.
Insufficient learning or failure
Tools enable learners to contribute to the community.
learners who want to learn what they need as fast as they can to apply within their community of practice
Tools are not objects of instruction.
