- there's a difference between web design and e-Learning

www.colormatters.com

www.webstyleguide.com - Chapter 3, talks about basic structures

ASSIGNMENT: I'm using this map because i'm using blah blah approach requires this sort of style... 250 words - justify choice and how it links to the map.

BEHAVIOURIST:
- set sequence, easiest to hardest
- can't skip a step, must be able to do all modules
- tested after each module and if you fail you are unable to move
- ideal for set procedures and motor skills

COGNITIVE:
- pre-testing allows people to pass a module however after they skip modules, they continue with the set structure e.g have already done 1-3, continue on from 4, 5, 6 etc
- don't have to pass a module however there may be an uneasy feeling
- require a structure or framework as to where the information belongs i.e big picture
- present with advanced information e.g prior research before starting a module

[EXAMPLE] of music playing being blended between behaviourist and cognitive: doesn't matter what order they play or how they play but you test them at the end

HUMANIST:
- concerned with the role of emotion, care how people feel
- can understand how they feel but may not make them work better e.g typing
- don't require a set order or structure

[EXAMPLE] of stress management being blended between humanist and cognitive: allow people to discuss how they feel in a structured approach

CONSTRUCTIVIST:
- no set structure
- building on experience
- collaborative learning i.e discussion boards, researching, problem solving, discussing and sharing information in no particular order
- allows personal learning
- aren't concerned with feeling but what you have learnt

[EXAMPLE] blend cognitive with constructivist: as people may become lost, the cognitive approach allows some structure

If you need structure, look at behavioursit, cognitive and gagne. Otherwise blend in the constructivist approach

SOCIAL LEARNING:
- learning by watching other people
- works for customer service, modelling behaviour

Good luck tomorrow Linda :)

Yeah it was good during the summer holidays coz we didnt have exams, although I dont like assignments either.

Pigion hole... sounds kinda rude... maybe thats the kind of mood im in tho... :)

That ice cream has made me go high now hehe it was so yum like the chocolate cake from the matrix!!!!!!!!!

Im trying to do my POL so I can hand it in now, but im soooooo not concentrating! Im blogging in everyones blogs instead...

Im glad u know u can talk to me, coz u really can! I like getting phone calls from ppl other than darren sometimes.... :P

"lets get retarded" stuck in my head...

ANYWAY , wat was I saying, oh yeah, I agree, this semester has been harder than all the rest so far, I hope it doesn get any more difficult next semester, or ill need double the holidays/breaks to survive!

Take your chances as they come.... must remember that... I dont wanna miss any of my chances, but everything takes time! And time is so short, like me....

Blog me soon :) Luv KC *mwa*

P.S Get to work on ur POL Part A - its easy if u just sit down and focus on ONE of them, and stick to it! Dont change ur mind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) BYE!

Hey KC!

=) Yup I went in and actually placed it in her pigeon hole (why do they call them that?)Anyway, I'm glad that's done - just only another 2 assignments and an exam to go... =/ I want my holidays now! I loved it when we didn't have any exams at all.

I'm okay - just have been a bit edgy lately because of stress. But thanks for that - I know I can talk to you anytime. I've just been pretty worried about my results this semester. I haven't failed anything which is good but yeah, I've just been on the alert of not doing well this semester. Everything is so much harder and so I've been having to make sure that I put in more effort to not sink =) So far I'm okay but yeah, waiting till the end of semester to see how I go I guess...

Cheers
