To start the week 5 conversation, here is my contribute and thoughts on learning outcomes (chapter 6). Please add, challenge, or re-direct the conversation as you feel necessary. Moreover, my goal of starting this conversation is to help us flush out our thoughts and ideas to complete and revise the “context template “due on Sunday. Of course we can revise it later as we have all agreed in past meetings designing thinking in non-linear and allows us time to reflect and improve our program.
I should also add my thoughts are based on the 2 learner personas, I have draft. I know we have not had time to discuss as a group and I hope to do that this evening, but regardless I wanted to start a conversation and I’m happy to revise my …show more content…
I think we have two learning outcomes (1) learning about a specific aspect of the natural environment and (2) learning about technology. Therefore, I think the learning experience focus will be different for each of these 2 aspects. Does the team agree?
If so, the level of Bloom’s taxonomy that I believe the natural environment learning experience will focus on is “Understanding” (Larsen, 2014, pg. 126). The reason I want to focus on understanding is because I believe in order for people to respect the environment, they need to understand it. Please challenge, disagree or add.
Then the level of Bloom’s taxonomy that I believe the technology learning experience will focus on is “Applying” and maybe even “Creating” (Larsen, 2014, pg. 126). I hesitate to focus as far are create but I think it will be only natural when they start using the teaching to produce their end produce (picture book, film, etc.)
I would love to read, hear or discuss as a group everyone’s ideas and hopefully we can transform all our work into outcomes and answer the final question at tonight’s team meeting: What outcomes will be achieved through learner engagement with your learning
