2. Content Presentation

3. Learner Involvement

4. Learner Assessment

Content Sequence

Component of Instructional Startegy

• Decide an order and grouping of training content

• Examples of Ordering:

  • Process

  • Bottom-Up

  • Top Down

  • Evolution

  • Complexity

1. Process

2. Bottom-Up

3. Top Down

4. Evolution

5. Complexity

What are ways to order the Content Sequence?

Process

Way to order Content Sequence

• Natural sequence of topic

Bottom Up

Way to order Content Sequence

• For hierarchical structure, like Maslow’s

Top Down

Way to order Content Sequence

• For hierarchical structure like Bloom’s

Evolution

Way to order Content Sequence

• Start with new information

Complexity

Way to order Content Sequence

• Balance information and allow time to assimilate content as they move on

• Allow time for it to be absorbed

Content Presentation

Component of Instructional Startegy

• Consists of the following:

  • Determine for each instructional unit how it is presented (traditional, activity-based, visual)

  • Supporting Content

  • Examples

1. Determine for each instructional unit how it is presented

2. Supporting Content

3. Examples

Components of Content Presentation

Determine for each instructional unit how it is presented

Component of Content Presentation

• Whether presented through…

  • traditional strategies: lecture

  • activity-based simulation

  • visual presentations: ppt, whiteboard, video

Supporting Content

Component of Content Presentation

• Additional readings

Examples

Component of Content Presentation

• Know which unit needs examples

Learner Involvement

Component of Instructional Strategy

• Includes the following:

  • Identifying reasons why student involved is needed in training

  • Whenever activities are included, preparation is a must

  • Examples of activities like assignments visits, roleplay

Learner Assessment

Component of Instructional Strategy

• __ needed to determine if learning objective are met

• Examples:

  • Pre-Test

  • Objective Assessment

  • Subjective Assessment

  • Participation

  • Peer Review

Pre-Test

Kind of Learner Assessment

On minimum KSAs needed

Objective Assessment

Kind of Learner Assessment

Tests specific KSAs; for example, a pencil and paper test

Subjective Assessment

Kind of Learner Assessment

Self assessment; find out your self if on track with learning assignments

Participation

Kind of Learner Assessment

Participant progress; for example, a return demonstration required student participation

Peer Review

Kind of Learner Assessment

Assess by discussion and present; for example, in research report is critiqued by a panel
