  • 560 Online - Interactive Module

    This badge will concentrate on designing, developing, producing and evaluating an interactive module of instruction. The module will consist of a variety of instructional activities that orient, motivate, engage, and assess, as well as provide the instructional materials to the learners. The completed module will: have content selected by the developer based on his/her need, expertise, desire, etc., successfully integrate various forms of technology in the design, development, and implementation process, and will be designed to be self-instructional. Purpose: This badge offers you the opportunity to demonstrate your instructional design capabilities as you plan and create the instructional module. It will require your expertise in the use of various technologies to investigate, design, and deliver the module, as well as the ability to select and integrate the proper technologies to engage and assess the learning of your audience. To give you a solid idea of what this interactive module is all about, watch this screencast and I will walk you through an example from education. Here the target audience is 9th grade English students and the focus of the module is on Shakespeare's Macbeth. Here is another screencast of a module that is more focused on a training audience (food safety). Background Scenario: Recently you began the process of looking for a new instructional design position. To prepare for eventual interviews, you want to be able to demonstrate your design capabilities, as well as your ability to select and integrate various forms of technology within the design and implementation processes. For the potential interviews, you decide to develop a self-instructional module that demonstrates your design capabilities. The content of your module is based on a topic of your choice but it will be something that your potential employer can review and use on his own (without you being present) and it will demonstrate your design skills, as well as your ability to integrate various forms of technology in an effective manner.
