A Critique of the Proposed National Education Policy Reform
SES - Interactive Task Example
1. What part do learning styles play in the design of e-learning resources
So far my colleagues have shown
How learning styles influence learning delivery
How to identify a students learning style(s)
I will now discuss ways to implement VARK learning styles
into a learning session.

2. What part do learning styles play in the design of e-learning resources
In my presentation I will demonstrate how
learning styles can be applied in an
e-learning environment.
To achieve this I will first present a small e-learning session.
During the session, please write down the learning styles
that you identify in the session.
I will then pose two SES topics to Group1.Group 1 will then
suggest ways to implement each learning style for the
topics given.

3. What part do learning styles play in the design of e-learning resources
In this module we will learn about the two
transmission methods that the SES radios
use. These are:
a) Direct
b) Repeater

4. What part do learning styles play in the design of e-learning resources
Direct
When set to ‘Direct’ radios will transmit/receive between
all other radios on the same channel and within its range
(about 5km)

5. What part do learning styles play in the design of e-learning resources
Repeater
When set to ‘repeater’ radios will transmit/receive from
Radio Towers. These towers pass the transmission onto
other towers. This provides a transmission range of
hundreds of kilometers

How to identify what mode a radio is set.
A || symbol is displayed to indicate that a radio is set to
Direct. No symbol is displayed in Repeater mode.

10. What part do learning styles play in the design of e-learning resources
Your turn...
So far I have done all the talking. Now it is your turn to
practice. On the next screen you will see a graphic of an SES
radio.
The radio is set to Direct mode. Use your mouse to press
the Radios buttons to change the mode to Repeater.
Unfortunately only ONE person can use the demo at a
time, so I will ask for a volunteer from Group 1 only. Please
use the ‘hands up’ tool to volunteer.

This is the end of the session.
I would now ask the students to complete
a couple tasks in their work book.
One task would be to describe the
purpose of the|| symbol.

Using the symbols on the right of the webinar control,
indicate which of the learning styles you identified in the
session. Use a negative to indicate styles not used.

Information dump?
On a scale of 1 to 5, did you think the demonstration was
an ‘Information dump’ – remember the session was only dealing with ‘changing mode’.

Not enough information Just right Information dump!
