The document provides detailed feedback on an instructional unit created by Pricilla for an education course, noting some areas that could be improved such as clarifying the intended audience and learning environment, and suggesting minor edits to sentence structure and wording; it praises the descriptive quality and choice to use Animoto, and encourages tweaking sections like the instructional goal and explanation of the specific goal to meet requirements.

Instructional Unit Feedback
Pricilla, the hard work you put into this assignment really shows. It is very
descriptive, and I happen to be a big fan of Animoto … great choice!
In an effort to provide you the best possible feedback, I too followed the rubric Dr.
Corbeil put on Blackboard. I broke it down in parts:
Overview:
need a comma after “(2005)” in the fifth line
consider revision of the phrase, “schools should determine a reason for schools
to perform a task…”
possibly revise, “One program that is useful for integrating the classroom is
Animoto.”
“…visuals/animations/pictures…” maybe you can use commas there.
“Then the target audience will be trained to maneuver the tools of the website
to successfully create the video.” -- from the previous sentence to this one, I
feel a gap (maybe it’s just me).
“The target audience will decide the theme of the video…” I would have word
it in a way to indicate individual pupils of the target audience or something like
that.
I’m glad you mentioned continuous sharing by grade level members.
Learning Environment: It doesn’t seem clear to me as to where exactly the learning
environment will take place or the performance environment. Just needs a little
tweaking.
Intended Audience: I’m not sure who exactly your intended audience for the
instructional unit is. I think it is teachers, but not clear. I would tweak this a bit to
be as clear as I could.
Overarching instructional goal: this seems right on, I’m not sure if Dr. Corbeil will say
something because it’s just one sentence.
Specific goal: Don’t forget to state the stability of the goal, how it’s instructional in
nature, and I know it’s realistic in the available time, but maybe mention that.

2. Explanation of Specific Goal… Was there any feedback from the target audience that
was used to modify the instructional goal? The last sentence in this section sounds
off; I think it just needs a comma after the word “positive.” The words “sub skills”
are two words and you have them as one.
*Note – double check to make sure you have two spaces after every period and colon.*
Conclusion: Specifically recap prior points stated from those sections.
Thank-you for allowing me to provide you with feedback, and I hope it helps. I
think you chose a great topic that with a bit of tweaking; it will make for an excellent
presentation. Good luck to you.
