Course Development

Week's Summary:

This week we are learning about the supporting materials and visualization for distance learning course and the implementation phase of the ADDIE framework. When reading this weeks chapter you learn how to develop a distance education course syllabus, discuss the advantages of using an interactive study guide, apply graphic design principles, develop word pictures, and develop visual mnemonics. There are three parts to the implementation phase: training the instructor, preparing the learners, and arranging the learning space. This week are also supposed to work on a new tab for our teacher websites we created in Ed 305. As well with the continued work on our module development assignment.

Item of Interest:


This week my item of interest is definitely the website assignment. Ever since I first made my website, I have always enjoyed adding new elements to it. I like how it allows me to be creative and design it how I want it to look. This isn't even really a large portion of our grade, but I just really enjoy developing my website. I think it is super cute and girly.

Problem or Concern:

Again this week I don't really have a problem or concern. Everything is falling into place and going pretty smoothly. I understand all of the materials we are learning, and enjoy it. This has been one of my favorite classes because everything is well explained and was not hard to figure out how to do all of the assignments. The semester is nearly over at this point!
