Hi group 11, thanks for sharing your interactive learning resource with us, I really enjoyed looking through it!
I just wanted to start by saying that your topic sounds very interesting, and as someone who doesn’t know much about economics I found the outline easy to follow! I thought you did a good job providing an overview of your resource, as I had a clear understanding of what I would be learning throughout the course. Below I have included some strong aspects of your learning resource that stood out to me.
- I liked how you included an explanation as to why you were not choosing behaviourism as a learning design for your interactive resource – it helped me have a greater understanding of how you wanted your course to be organized and instructed.
- I thought that your learning outcomes aligned well with your rational for the learning activities that you were providing
- I also liked how you included an example of what a quiz would look like – it acts as a great reference to guide both the professor and students
- I thought your 7th section was very well organized by providing your topic, the resources you will be using to teach that topic, and how each topic would be assessed to meet the learning goal associated with it- this made it extremely easy to follow!!
I have also included below some possible suggestions for improvement:
- I thought your idea to include videos is a great way to help ELL students with learning material. A potential suggestion I have would be to include sub titles or videos that contain captions as it makes it easier for ELL students to connect pictures with words that they will eventually be seeing in the readings that you talk about providing.
- I like how you included blogs as a form of activity, because as we have seen in this class, it is a great way for students to post and respond to other people. One suggestion I have would be to include a bit more description on how blog posts are being used, as I wasn’t sure if it was the platform you were using for group discussions or something else.
Overall, I think your groups interactive learning resource is very well done, and the class sounds like it would be very enjoyable!
