This workshop aims to reinvigorate instructional design for blended learning. It will explore new approaches and models for instructional design, allow participants to reflect on their current practices, and discuss how to improve design of online courses from a learner's perspective. Participants will read about and discuss various instructional design topics and models, including the ADDIE model and Gagne's nine events of instruction. The goal is to help designers apply new learning to better structure their online courses and interactions to improve learning outcomes.
This presentation was given at the KSAALT Al Khobar Chapter Mini Conference in December 2015. It aims to give EFL teachers, who know they must embrace technology, but who are reluctant, a starter on how they can use technology in the classroom. The presentation is by no means exhaustive. You may think that you have better tools, in which case feel free to do another presentation, I will watch with interest! Also it does not take into account any software issues that may have developed since it was given. If I have time, I may write a sequel, so . . . . Watch this space!

Working with a CMS (or CLE): Lessons We Can All Learn, Regardless of PlatformAmber D. Marcu, Ph.D.
This panel discusses lessons we can all learn from engaging with a CMS or CLE, regardless of its specific platform. That panelists will discuss CMS training and tips for faculty to get the most out of your CMS or CLE. One of the many practical applications discussed will be the use of ePortfolio tools embedded within Virginia Tech's collaborative learning environment.
A workshop on designing interaction activities into your online and hybrid courses using BlackBoard and other technology tools including WebEx, Google Hangouts, and Trello. Focuses on Standards 3, 5, and 6 from Quality Matters.
When it comes to "live streaming a classroom" the first thing you should consider is privacy. Do you want the entire world to be able to see your live stream or just your students? Here is a shortlist of education online communication types you could consider:
School-Wide Announcement (ideal for live stream)
Public School Meeting (ideal for live stream)
Grade Wide Online Session (ideal for private live stream)
Private Classroom Lesson (ideal for online meeting technology)
Small Breakout Sessions (only available with video conferencing software like Zoom)
One on One Meeting (ideal for online meeting technology)
As you can see, the list above goes from public-facing live streams to private online meetings. It's important to start by considering your audience and the type of live stream or online meeting you want to host.

Abstract: Programmers are constantly learning new technologies, especially in the rapidly evolving frontend ecosystem. As a result, developers often find themselves in a teaching role -- whether that means mentoring a colleague, writing blog posts, speaking at meetups, or even teaching more formally at a college or bootcamp.
So, how can you teach code more effectively? We'll go over strategies for breaking down information, explaining concepts without jargon, using relevant examples, and engaging learners so that you can be more effective the next time you are in a teaching position.
2. This workshop is all about re-invigorating how you
design learning (Often called instructional design)
3. The success of your learning program hinges
on a critical question: does it help your
audience learn and apply relevant skills and
knowledge? If not, it’s probably because the
instructional design got lost in the shuffle…
4. What is this workshop all about?
Finding out what I.D. means to you/what you
know already
Clarify your understanding
Explore new learning
Share new learning and apply to your
classroom
REFLECT on what you will do differently
5. And....do this in a web-conference, using the
functions and features of iConnect elluminate
software
6. What do you know?
What processes do you follow?
Do you follow a particular model?
14. http://instructionaldesign.com.au/
TOPICS include:
What is Instructional Design?
Learning Science
First principles of Instruction
What do designers do?
Allocate topics to read, reflect, explain to rest of
group-can you give an example to demonstrate
your understanding or example of how you might
use/have used this info in your teaching?
15. Guest speaker-Tracie Regan
Senior Training Consultant-Wide Bay
Don’t forget that being online should not make you a mystery person.
Hi! I’m Tracie. Welcome to my class!
Open the audio file below to hear about me.
(you can even save this mp3 file to your iPod!)
(not available on this presentation)
16. Tracie says:
Look at the ‘whole of course’ I.D. from a
learner’s perspective
Is it interesting enough that you would log in on
your own?
Can someone not familiar with your course work
out what to do next?
Can you find the teacher or others in the class?
Is the jargon appropriate?
18. How does your student know they have finished their studies?
Is expiry of COS enough?
19. Other things to think about:
• Student privacy in forums (set as group and not course forums)
• Archiving old forum threads (do this regularly)
• Print versions of resources
• Consider releasing ‘new’ areas as the group progresses (staged learning)
• Add Teacher support areas (for training plans, TAS, marking guides..)
• Where’s the fun?
20. Reflect
Has your Instructional Design process
been reinvigorated?
What have you learnt/remembered?
What will you do differently to prepare for
you next program/class?
(reflect 2 mins, then share)
