Study Notes

Course Objective

The ultimate goal is to develop proficiency in both oral and written communication skills

Developing Instructional Materials

Know your students well to create effective materials
Understand the learning outcomes
Think smart and practical in selecting materials
Adapt/adopt well-proven effective instructional materials
Create contextualized materials considering context, content, and structure

Teaching Vocabulary

Mastering vocabulary facilitates the acquisition of other skills like listening, speaking, and writing
Vocabulary is defined as the knowledge of words and their meanings
Consider the availability of materials and diagnose students' vocabulary levels
Create your own materials, adapt existing ones, or contextualize them according to classroom needs

Merrill's Principle of Design

Information-about (Acquisition of facts): remembering and identifying facts associated with a specific entity, activity, or process
How-to (Procedural knowledge): ordered sequence of steps necessary to accomplish a goal, solve a problem, or produce a product

Component Display Theory

A combination of fundamental types of knowledge and skill
Focuses on the teaching of most subject matter content involving a combination of knowledge and skill
Developed by Merrill in the early 1980s

ADDIE Model

Analysis: identifying the problem, audience, learning goals, and time needed for development
Design: drafting an outline for the content and its design
Development: creating the content
Implementation: delivering the content
Evaluation: assessing if the desired outcomes were achieved
Flexible and adaptable to individualized and traditional instruction
Can be used for both linear and dynamic instructional design

Bruner's Three Stages of Cognitive Representation

Enactive: representation of knowledge through actions, encoding and storing information without internal representation
Iconic: visual summarization of images, involving internal representation of external objects visually
Note: The third stage is not mentioned in the text
