Julie, Michael, and Kellie, working with Dr. David Merrill in an instructional design course at the University of Hawaii, are creating instructional materials to teach third graders to use Ning, a social networking site.
This is a chart of our tasks at this point. The comments in red are our focus. The comments in black are our prerequisite skills taught outside of this module.
ReplyDeleteStudents will learn to participate in a virtual Readers Workshop using the Ning site.
First, we need to teach the learners to log into Ning and set up their personal page.
Next, we will show our learners how to respond to assignments and each other in the discussion forum.
Students already know to access e-books. A link to Tumble books will be posted on the Ning site for easy access.
Students are learning about story elements f2f. This learning will be further developed, practiced, and accessed in the Ning.
Students will receive feedback to their postings from the teacher and their peers in the Ning.
Like your chart. Good way to keep track of different component skills as we discussed. Couple of comments on your skills. I think that share ideas and interact online is really a form of integration rather than a what-happens skill. What happens usually asks the question "why?" Why did this work or why did this not work? The best form of application for what happens is to figure out why an unexpected consequence occurred.
ReplyDeleteKinds of involves identifying examples of something. I don't see how "Logging onto an online site" is a kind of skill? I don't see how participate in a community of practice is a kind of skill.
Using your other content area -- an example of kind of would be to recognize previously unencountered instances of passages that describe character, or that comprise the climax of the story.
Hope this is helpful.
