The document summarizes the instructional design process for integrating technology into teaching. It involves 5 steps: 1) defining instructional goals and objectives, 2) choosing active instructional methods, 3) selecting appropriate technologies, 4) assessing student learning, and 5) revising the approach. The document provides examples of active learning methods and technologies that can support goals like group projects and collaborative learning. It emphasizes designing lessons around student engagement and preparing students with 21st century skills.

2. "I don't see how this can
possibly help me as a
teacher. It will only be a
distraction from student’s
learning."

3. Instructional Design Process
1. Define instructional goals and
objectives, Who is my learner?
2. Choose active instructional
methods
3. Choose activities and
technologies which support
teaching methods
4. Assess learning
5. Revise and fine tune for next time

4. 2. Define Educational Objectives
 Cognitive
 Knowledge, comprehension,
application, analysis,
synthesis, evaluation
 Affective
 Interests, attitudes, values,
etc.
 Psychomotor
 Movement, physical,
kinesthetic, etc.

5. Active Learning

6. Which are examples of
Active Learning methods?
Lectures
Reading
Group Projects

8. Active Instructional Methods
 Less presentation, more
engagement of learners
 Collaborative learning
 Student-focused learning

9. The Changing Paradigm
 Brain and learning are not static
 Too much knowledge for any one
person to be ‘the’ expert…
 No single right answer…
 Global perspective = Multiple
perspectives/approaches
 Complicated world = need for
groups of problem solvers not solo
memorizers

10. 3. Choose Appropriate Technology
 Choice of technology should follow
instructional goals & objectives
 Choice should be part of overall
instructional design process
 Be practical
 Ask for help
 Faculty development and support
 Media centers
 Colleagues

11. Technology and Active Learning
 Communication Tools
 Simulations
 Games
 Collaborations
 Worldwide resources

12. Like what?
 Games
 Blackboard Course Management
 References – Medicine Textbook
 Learning Objects from MERLOT
Ex. The Auscultation Assistant
Christopher Cable, MD
 Electronic Whiteboards, Tablet PCs
 Listservs
 Nursecom Web Resources

13. Reasons to Use Teaching Technology
 It can help promote active learning
 Global communication tools
 Less presentation in classroom =
more time for discussion
 Prepares students for 21st Century
 Can promote efficiency
 Developing instructional materials
 Delivering instruction

14. Best Practices
 Be practical about investment of
your time and energy
 Practice using technology before
you get to the classroom
 Schedule equipment ahead of time
 Be casual; have a backup plan

15. Investigate Support Resources
 Training Centers
 Classroom Technology support
 General computing services and
support
 Online learning

16. 4. Assess & Revise
 Formative Assessment
 Pilots, learners trying out instruction
 Field studies & observation
 Summative Assessment
 Did they learn? What didn’t go so well?
What should be revised for next time?
 Embedded, innovative assessments
Teaching a dynamic process!

17. Know the Legal Issues
 FERPA
 Online communications
 Grades
 Access to other student’s info.
 Copyright
 Fair Use
 Teach Act
