Instructional Design for Competence-based Learning
The document summarizes an instructional design presentation on competence-based learning. It begins with an overview of instructional design and the ADDIE model of analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation. It then discusses the nature of competence and its implications for instructional design, focusing on situating, sequencing, scaffolding and supporting learning through authentic and integrated acquisition of competence. The document provides examples of instructional design models and discusses applying cognitive load theory and assessment for learning to scaffold support for learners.

- 18. Analyse SITUATE LEARNING
- 19. 19 Situate Learning Purpose • Provide authentic context for learning in terms of task performed at workplace • Set the stage for determining the – content (which Competence Units/Elements) – relationship between CU/CE hence nature of integrated application of CU/CE – MSP – relationship between T M S P hence the nature of integrated application of T M S P • Guide the design of learning activities/contexts to promote systematic acquisition of competence and develop cognitive flexibility to handle varying workplace situations An Example © 2012

- 25. 25 Scaffold & SupportLearning • Design learning activities to - facilitate learners' processing, organising & retention of content - encourage learners to take ownership of their own learning • Design learning resources (e.g. instructional presentation, notes, activity sheets) that support learning How? – 2 suggestions Apply Cognitive Load Theory Promote Assessment for/as Learning © 2012
- 26. Scaffold & SupportLearning 26 – Applying Cognitive Load Theory Main ideas • Working memory is limited while long term memory is not • Learning is about changes in the schematic structures of long term memory or increased automation • Well organised and highly connected schemas aids – retrieval of prior knowledge; and – processing of new information. • For effective schema acquisition (or learning) to occur, instruction should be designed to reduce the working memory load. © 2012
- 27. Scaffold & SupportLearning 27 – Applying Cognitive Load Theory What is cognitive load? • Cognitive load is the load in the working memory needed to process and encode the new information to enhance the schematic structures in the long term memory • 3 types of cognitive load – Intrinsic – Extraneous – Germane Objectives of instructional design - reduce extraneous load - increase germane load © 2012 More to be covered in future SIG sessions
- 28. 28 Scaffold & SupportLearning – Applying Cognitive Load Theory • On your own – Study the 2 examples assigned to your group • In your group – Discuss • Which example better applied cognitive load theory?
