Week 8 Reflection

I worked on the instructional strategy this week. Unfortunately, I did not finish it in time for Tod to get a video put up by Sunday at 11:59. I was in a lot of pain from my back, so it was hard to focus for more than a few minutes at a time. This was an important task because it lists the strategies we will take to build our content. It was a little tricky for me because we had already begun building our content so I wondered if we were going to have to make some changes. When working in MRKK, I did preinstructional strategies and set strategies for each goal. Also, I thought about my audience and getting their attention as in strategies in Gagne’s nine steps. Eventually, I was able to complete the task to my group members’ satisfaction. During this process, I learned more about strategies and learning theories. This will be helpful this summer when I design other instruction. Next week we will continue to work on our treatment report. Claire was able to get all the components in, we will spend the week tweaking it.
