Instructor comments on your needs assessment and objectives -- Jz833665 21:17, 17 October 2010 (EDT)

You've had a nice beginning of this project to create an instructional case report. A few suggestions:

1) Further clarify what pedagogical principle/strategies this instructional case will demonstrate. Is it about how to engage students to integrate multiple sources for inquiry of social studies topics?

2) You've listed a few goals, which need to be further developed/refined into performance-based learning objectives following what we have learned from Gagne.

3) For your awareness, I'm copying below guidelines re. instructional case reports from General Suggestions and Feedback

What issues should be addressed in an instructional case report

Here are the basic elements an instructional case report should include:

   * Rationale and overview: Your intend, what it is about, what a teacher may learn from it.
   * Learning context (or professional training context)
   * Why the selected pedagogy/tech/assessment tools are appropriate in this context.
   * Lesson plan
         o The learner
         o Educational outcomes and performance objectives (including sequencing the objectives into an ICM)
         o Design ideas about the learning processes, media, resources, assessment
         o Lesson units (unit objectives, content, activities, resources/tools, assessment if needed within a unit) 
   * Implementation
   * Reflection 

This is only a primary outline to guide your work. You may find some of the elements inapplicable to your case or that a different structure works better for your case report. So you can adjust in meaningful ways to make your case study report most informative, readable, and valuable to teachers.
