1.)  In chapter 4 I read about the different ways of learning. I actually fall into many categories. I learn by reading, visually, and by working alone. I find that doing all the things previously listed I learn very well. I read and highlight, take notes, make pictures (depending on what it pertains to, mainly math when it comes to the visual part). I definitely do prefer working alone (I don't like the distractions). The characteristics of the type of learning that suggests that it fits for me is reflective learning. I tend to gather as much information as possible doing a lot of research before I commit to something (in other words before I make my final decision or make up my mind). The classroom environment that I feel works best for me is by visually seeing what the teacher is trying to teach, for example: things written on the chalk board or white board, posters around the room, and independent work. In addition, to hands on (actually doing the work to help me learn or t

Assignment 1: Project Analysis and Instructional Objectives

Due Week 4 and worth 125 points

In Week 1, you identified a need, such as new equipment, expanding curriculum, change in procedures, and so forth, that you want to address through the instructional curriculum you will create for your class project. You also provided a rationale concerning why the problem or need exists, outlined a goal for the project, and proposed instructional strategies. Each week is a building block as we move through the stages for planning instructional design to address the identified need. The purpose of this assignment is to document the planning process. Use the Internet to locate information that you believe will assist you with your project.

Write a two to four (2-4) page paper in which you:

1. Develop a needs analysis for the identified need.

2. Determine the learner characteristics for the identified need.

Research of Educational Change

One aspect of professional development that educators can participate in is that of educational conferences. While you may at some point have participated in an educational conference as an attendee, you have the opportunity in this assignment to think as a presenter! This assignment will also provide you the opportunity to create or revise your Curriculum Vitae (CV) and cover letter.

In this assignment, you will take your discussion presentation you prepared for the staff meeting and convert it into a poster that you could use at an academic conference. As well, often when submitting a poster proposal you include a CV and cover letter that highlight your experience and research interests. If you created a CV and cover letter for a course in your program sequence, you may take this opportunity to revise and update those artifacts.

Historically, a conference poster session involves use of a large poster-board style docum
