I never really thought about keeping a learning objects database to store content to reuse later. That is a very interesting idea to consider.
A database of learning materials may be used in more than one course if the objectives are congruent.
In this module, the focus was development and consistency of resources. A single database (repository) should be created to save different course resources like videos, graphs, complementary articles, etc., in order for easy and convenient access to use for future courses. Also, in developing the course and modules, there should be a consistent theme used throughout to include wording, fonts, graphics, etc. as not to confuse the students but rather enhance their learning.
Proper planning of the course framework will support course learning objectives and provide a better learning environment. It's an ongoing process that needs to be relied on in order to maintain high quality instruction in an online learning environment and also can be used to organize materials for efficient instruction in the future.
Consistency is key to activating a familiarity that aids in students learning. Having a diversity of access to the information to cater to different learning styles within the consistent module layout also boosts learning.
Learning modules need to be consistent in size and language usage among other considerations. Develop these with the student's learning needs in mind.
Consistency is the key. Having the course set up and able to use portions of the module in other course shells is a helpful key.
The most important thing is consistency so students can feel as though they are progressing through the course and not getting off track
Learning objects may be subject matter specific or general. The school may have general learning objects that the instructor can use.
I learned about being consistent with the development of modules so students can better find tasks and complete them online.
I learned that being consistent helps students with their understandings and flow of the materials and can reduce student anxiety.
The most important thing I learned was to be consistent in use of language. I plan on making sure I use linear verbiage and adjectives to stay consistent.
I've learned that our teaching software doesn't allow this concept to be implemented.
It is essential to keep modules consistent and clear. The learning process can be disrupted by confusion and inconsistent pacing.
Consistency is key to retention and easy of use.
I liked the idea of chunking - using conjoined course objects to facilitate grasp of related concepts in a course.
I've learned to recognize the importance of consistency and utilizing digestible learning objects to help with the learning process.
I found it quite interesting to have a better framework for consistency. Sometimes I feel like I want to have more freedom to design things differently, but it makes sense from the student perspective to keep things uniform, so that they do not have to deal with changing things. This also limits their questions and helps save me time.
Course consistency and the importance of the ongoing process of testing and revising.
It's important to have courses consistent in how they are set up, with clear learning objectives so students don't get frustrated trying to navigate around to figure out where to go next to complete assignments and assessments and learn the content they need to do that successfully.
