Talk:Jamie T's Portfolio Page

Great start! -- Janewilde (talk) 10:59, 12 October 2013 (EDT)

Hi Jamie, So I found your page by searching. Please link it to your personal page. It's great that you have a jump on a few of the sections. There are some things that I want you to refine. 1) Please add a picture to either you personal page or your portfolio page so you practice this now rather than when you are going to build out your course. 2) Under your first section I want you to indicate which learning outcomes you hope to achieve. By "Outcomes" I mean Gagne's five learning types (what he calls outcomes in the chapter of the same name). Which of these will you look for. The reason I ask you to do this is that we usually limit ourselves to types of learning that we can test on typical tests. These are limited to what Gagne calls verbal and motor outcomes. This people can recall and things people can physically do. Will you teach this kind of learning? Will you also teach to intellectual, cognitive and attitude? 3) Since this week you read about gagne's ideas on learning objectives, I'd like you in the coming week to refine these. You don't have to use all five parts, but give it a try. And look at the words he uses to align your objectives to the types of learning outcomes. Keep up the good work. - Jane _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Hi Jamie,

Josiah Boehlke here...

What I like:

I think you have a very important topic. Your goals are clear and it is easy to follow your mini-course. Visuals help bring attention to important data and I enjoyed the links to the video’s you included. I also believe the tasks are appropriate for the teachers to do.

Things to think about:

Possibly add links at the end of the lesson that would take you to your next lesson (I still have not figured this out myself though)! Also, is the Task Analysis the same thing as the Curriculum Map? I didn’t see your Curriculum Map, but I feel the Task Analysis is almost the same thing.

Great job overall! Look forward to viewing the final mini-course!
