EDTC 640 - My Online Training Module
Inclusive in my Online Training Module are many of the principles that I learned about throughout the course. Throughout the module, I demonstrated my ability to apply the e-learning principles through the use of self-made videos, the use of the voicethread and sound recordings, and many other principles and skills learned throughout the course. In addition to providing voice recordings, I also included documents that provide the descriptions in text, for those who may be hearing-impaired, or who may just prefer to read text instead of hearing my voice, or for those who may prefer to use both text and voice. I avoided the redundancy principle here because I didn’t include the text on the page, but instead provided an easy to locate document that has to be opened to access the text.
I was careful not to crowd my pages, and I was consistent with the size of the text that I used on each page. I used neutral colors, avoiding the use of bright and distracting colors. The activities that I provided to the educators in training consisted of activities that are similar to the type of activities that they would provide for their students in their own classrooms. I provided rubrics for the educators to follow as they evaluated themselves and each other throughout the course. At the end of the course, I also provided the educators with a rubric to evaluate the effectiveness of the course. I really enjoyed completing this project. I found that I easily retain a lot of the information learned throughout the course without even realizing that I had retained it. This was a fun project that allowed me to see how my skills have strengthened as a result of this course.
