This is an overview of the learning system I created with Edmodo.

2. PRESENTATION
• HI, I’M ERIK
• NUTS AND BOLTS OF LEARNING THEORY, INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN AND METHOD
• HOW THEY FIT INTO MY PROJECT

3. PURPOSE
• I WORK AT A HIGH SCHOOL AND ONE OF MY HATS IS AN ADVISOR
• WHAT I DO
• SUCCESS
• NEEDS IMPROVEMENT

4. WHAT’S MY PROJECT
• TEACH STUDENTS HOW TO MAKE A SET DESIGN FOR THEATER
• I’M NOT EXPERT, BUT I’M A PROBLEM SOLVER
• SET DESIGN INVOLVES SOLVING PROBLEMS VISUALLY AND PRACTICALLY WITH YOUR SET

5. MY APPROACH
• CONSTRUCTIVIST!
• STUDENT CENTERED
• BUILDING KNOWLEDGE ON PAST EXPERIENCES
• TAKES INTO ACCOUNT THAT STUDENTS AREN’T A BLANK SLATE
• WE ARE ALL INTUITIVELY DESIGNERS-I’M TEACHING HOW TO FORMALIZE THOSE SKILLS

6. CONSTRUCTIVISM
• TEST OUR KNOWLEDGE WITH SOCIAL INTERACTION, BUILD KNOWLEDGE THROUGH COMMUNICATION
• THEATER IS SOCIAL AND A COLLABORATIVE PROCESS
• A SET DESIGNER MUST COMMUNICATE WITH OTHERS

7. INSTRUCTIONAL METHOD
• COURSE IS “HOUSED” IN EDMODO-NEAT PACKAGE-A LOT TO OFFER
• INSTRUCTION IS GIVEN MAINLY WITH VIDEOS-MULTIMEDIA INSTRUCTION (COST EFFECTIVE&ROOM FOR
INDIVIDUAL GROWTH)
• VIDEOS HAVE SOME TEXT AND IMAGES TO MAKE THE CONCEPTS COMPLETE
• SCREEN CASTS FOR TUTORIALS
• POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS

8. STUDENT ACTIVITIES IN METHOD
• STUDENTS WILL LEARN THROUGH A FEW VEHICLES:
• CREATING A NARRATIVE-LITTLE SHOP PROJECT
• CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING-MOVIE PROJECT

9. INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN
• RAPID PROTOTYPING
• VARIATION TO ADDIEDESIGN
• APPEARS IN MANY DESIGN ORIENTED PROGRAMS
• WHILE IT ANALYZES, DESIGN, DEVELOPS, IMPLEMENT, EVALUATE-IT FOCUSES ON PROTOTYPE CREATION
• MODEL MAKING-VERY IMPORTANT-ESPECIALLY IN THEATER-GOOD FOR PLANNING
