Editor's Notes
This presentation will show the organization can integrate social media or other e-learning into the effective communication training already offered. This plan will show how to integrate social media or e-learning tools into the training and encourage staff to view it in a positive manner.
Sink (2008) stated, “Learning theories give rise to learning strategies, tactics, experiences, and learning environments that support theory” (p. 202). Sink stated (Sink, 2008, as cited in Molenda and Russell, 2005) “Training courses usually have their origins in one or more learning theories” (p. 202).
According to Hartnett et al. (2011), “The perceived importance, relevance, and utility value of the activity (associated with identified regulation) were just as important as the interest or enjoyment of the task (associated with intrinsic motivation).
Heafner (2004) recommends incorporating instructional practices that are student centered. By focusing on students, teachers are able to encourage student interest, which translate into increased student motivation to learn.
