Week 1 Work

 

Instructional design – the design of instructional experiences using established learning strategies to make the development of ‘knowledge and skill more efficient, effective and appealing’ (Merrill et al. 1996)

Educational design – has a wider pedagogical repertoire than instructional design (Goodyear 2005)

Learning design – provides a framework for developing “learning and teaching environments that enable effective learning” (UOW, 2011)

Hello dear readers!

Hi All,

Welcome to my EDGE902  ‘Instructional Strategies and Design’ blog.

See my other blog here http://findingjojoh.blogspot.com.au/ (uhoh! is that cross-advertising?) I created that for a previous uni subject too. Kept it going for a while longer.. but as you can see life has taken over and it has been a while!

🙂

I started this subject a couple of years ago but unfortunately had to have a break from uni for a while. It is very different so far.

Looking forward to extending myself for my last subject of my Masters.
