ETAP 623 Fall 2021 (Zhang)
The ETAP 623 class (offered online at http://blackboard.albany.edu/) will use this wiki space to work on our ID project. Each of you will create a mini-course, deploying your knowledge and skills learned about the principles and processes of instructional design. It is our goal to carry out authentic instructional design and development to produce mini-courses for real use, as Open Educational Resources (OER) for teacher learning, improvement, and innovation.
When you contribute to this open space, please realize that the pages you created here are accessible to your peers (and other visitors if they search and find your page). If you have any concern about this openness or want to prevent your work from being publicly visited, please contact Dr. Jianwei Zhang at jzhang1(at)albany.edu to negotiate a special setting or remove your pages from this site after your class is completed.
An Overview of the ID Project
The ID process
The ID project expects you to exercise the processes of instructional design as we study/read about each ID process in ETAP 623. The ID processes will be documented in your project portfolio page.
- Template: Sample Student's Portfolio Page
- example 1: Brooke Ebersold and example 2 Rebecca_G.'s_Portfolio_Page
End Product
As your end product, you will produce a mini-course for teacher learning, with teachers as your target learner/audience. Use the Mini-Course front page template to organize your mini-course with navigation links to the units. You can see a set of example mini-courses featured at KNILT Home.
Project Agenda
- The design processes are scheduled as ETAP 623 Fall 2021 Design Project Agenda
Evaluation Criteria
- This design process (portfolio) and end product (mini-course) will be evaluated based on the following Evaluation_criteria
General Suggestions and Feedback from the Instructor
* Please click here to see very helpful General Suggestions and Feedback
- IMPORTANT! Name your wikipages and attached files using unique titles/filenames: This Wiki system will overwrite pages/files with the same name. So IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE NAME OUR WIKIPAGES USING UNIQUE TITLES. For example, instead of "unit 1" or "lesson 1" you should use "Unit 1: Specific Title..." Similarly, for your curriculum maps and other attached files, please also use unique filenames such as "ICM_your name.doc"
- It is always a good idea to first draft your text in a word processing package and then save it outside of the wiki. Back-ups are always handy to have!
Tutorials about Basic Wiki Editing
Our KNILT wiki runs on the Mediawiki platform. Our KNILT site has just gone through a major upgrading over Summer 2019. The current version has a better editing toolbar for inserting/uploading images and formatting the text, under Advanced.
If you are new to wiki editing, Please see the user guide created by a former ETAP 623 class member Marc Freed. Feel free to try any of the editing tricks in Sandbox page. * You can share specific useful wiki features/tips here: KNILT Wiki Tech Tricks.
