Module 7 is pulling everything together.  I did not generate a video for this week. As always, you can find readings in Blackboard, with additional resources in Evernote. There are some things you should focus on.

• Looking at a critical review of ID model. There are two articles you should focus on for this:  (1) Edmonds, G., Branch, R. and Mukherjee, P.  article and (2) Andrews, D. and Goodson, L. article. From these you should think about the types of models and the conceptual framework for evaluating models.
• The Gibbons & Yanchar article and Molenda, Pershing and Reigeluth chapter focuses on the ID process and what that means about models.
• Finally, the Nelson, Magliaro and Sherman article provides a look at ID from the perspective of intellectual content. This reading talks about the level of complex thinking involved in the ID process. If you’re looking at Bloom’s Taxonomy, we’re at the top. Especially when it comes to your final project.For those interested in learning more in general about expert vs novice problem solving, there has been a lot of research on this, especially in math and sciences. You can do a lit search on this if you’re interested.
