Instructor comments on your needs assessment and objectives -- Jianwei Zhang (talk) 14:22, 16 March 2013 (EDT)
- Your design project is addressing an important and interesting topic. A few comments:
1. The performance objectives need to be refined. Objectives mean to make clear what the learner will be able to do after finishing your mini-course, not what they will do during the mini-course. So the situation and context for each performance should identify in which context they will use such skills out side of your mini-course. For example,
"Given video to watch and print media to read, teachers will identify and list ways in which student engagement is enhanced by integrating mobile technology in the classroom setting. "
I guess "Given video to watch and print media to read" is what the learn will encounter during this mini-course, not after the completion. You may say something like "When asked by a colleague, the participant will be able identify at least x ways in which student engagement is enhanced by integrating mobile technology in the classroom setting." Please also check your other objectives.
2. I assume that there needs to be one objective on your list related to what mobile devices are and what affordances they have.
3. I assume that you are aware of; you can find a lot of good references that you can draw upon to make the content of this mini-course solid and well grounded. (http://www.edtechmagazine.com/k12/video/iste-2012-byod-here-so-get-used-it)
Instructor comments on your ICM -- Jianwei Zhang (talk) 22:54, 15 April 2013 (EDT)
I like the task analysis and ICM you've posted that inform the design of the whole mini-course well. Nice work.
Two refinements you may make:
"Teachers will be able to contribute at least three lessons to a shared WikiSpace page which will contain mobile technology integrated lesson plans that they have created in the class." This seems to be a learning activity/assignment within this mini-course instead of an objective (what the participant will be able to do after this class). What is the thing to be learned about mobile learning through doing this?
Your learning outcomes/objectives include modifying lesson plans... and I don't seem this reflected in your ICM.

Thank you very much Professor Zhang, I have made the refinements as you suggested.
