RIOs/RLOs

We started off with a discussion about RIOs and RLOs. We had a long discussion about the structure of RLOs and RIOs and how they may be used within the context of instruction. If you are struggling with this concept, please ask. The threaded discussion for Module 05 is a great place for that.

In-class Exercises -Module 04 and Module 05

This week in class we revisited Module 4 along with Module 5.

We then did two in-class exercises. One focuses just on thinking about using Clarke’s Architectures to plan instruction. The second was a longer exercise that covered Module 4 and Module 5. This exercise has you writing objectives and then planning instruction.

For those who missed class, below is a link to the exercise. You should complete the two exercises and return to me.

• Learning Architectures to plan instruction
• The Baldwin School Case – write objectives and plan instruction

YEARS ago I created a 2-pager on objectives for the Motivation Course. While the point there was to focus on the affective domain, the general description applies.

• Mystery of Objectives download (PDF)
• Website: Three Domains of Learning – Cognitive, Affective, Psychomotor

One way to start writing objectives is to start by creating a table and then writing the objective.
