Book Instruction Design for Microcomputing Software

Download or read book Instruction Design for Microcomputing Software written by David Jonassen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-03 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected as one of the outstanding instructional development books in 1989 by the Association for Educational Communications and Technology, this volume presents research in instructional design theory as it applies to microcomputer courseware. It includes recommendations -- made by a distinguished group of instructional designers -- for creating courseware to suit the interactive nature of today's technology. Principles of instructional design are offered as a solid base from which to develop more effective programs for this new method of teaching -- and learning.

Book Meta Analysis of the Minimalist Training Model

Download or read book Meta Analysis of the Minimalist Training Model written by Paul Ginns and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article reviews research on the Minimalist instructional design model, a learner-centred approach to the design of instructional materials such as computer program manuals or on-line help. Studies in this paradigm have typically compared minimalist materials against traditional "system-centred" materials. Additionally, some studies have investigated the effects of specific minimalist design heuristics. However, small samples in many original studies have meant effect size estimates are imprecise. Meta-analytic methods were applied to 13 experimental effect sizes comparing the minimalist and system-centred approaches, and 6 effects investigating the effects of specific minimalist heuristics ("support error recognition and recovery" and "slash the verbiage"). The overall mean effect on learning in favour of the minimalist approach was large (d = 1.12), broadly supporting the minimalist approach compared to system-centred designs. The mean effect for tests of the "support error recognition and recovery" principle was moderate (d = 0.59), and the mean effect for tests of the "slash the verbiage" principle was large (d = 0.89). These results indicate the application of minimalist design principles to self-study manuals for learning to use computer programmes is associated with more effective learning. By applying these principles, designers of such manuals can assist learners, as well as gaining a competitive edge. (Contains 3 tables.).

Book An Overview of Minimalist Instruction

Download or read book An Overview of Minimalist Instruction written by John Millar Carroll and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "The Minimalist approach to instructional design was developed to respond to a class of typical and serious user errors which are not dealt with successfully by standard 'systematic' instruction. This paper reviews our efforts at taking user errors seriously as suggesting design requirements for instructional systems and other training material. Our Minimalist approach guided the design of a variety of experimental materials which proved to be far more efficient than commercially-developed alternatives. Recently, the Minimalist model has begun to change commercial practice and to guide our more recent research on what we call 'task intelligence'."

Book The Nurnberg Funnel

Download or read book The Nurnberg Funnel written by John Millar Carroll and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do people acquire beginning competence at using new technology? The legendary Funnel of Nurnberg was said to make people wise very quickly when the right knowledge was poured in; it is an approach that designers continue to apply in trying to make instruction more efficient. This book describes a quite different instructional paradigm that uses what learners do spontaneously to find meaning in the activities of learning. It presents the "minimalist" approach to instructional design - its origins in the study of people's learning problems with computer systems, its foundations in the psychology of learning and problem solving, and its application in a variety of case studies. Carroll demonstrates that the minimalist approach outperforms the standard "systems approach" in every relevant way - the learner, not the system determines the model and the methods of instruction. It supports the rapid achievement of realistic projects right from the start of training, instead of relying on drill and practice techniques, and designing for error recognition and recovery as basic instructional events, instead of seeing error as failure. The book's many examples - including a brief discussion of recent commercial applications - will help researchers and practitioners apply and develop this new instructional technology. The Nurnberg Funnel inaugurates the Technical Communications series, edited by Ed Barrett. Author John M. Carroll has participated for a number of years as a leader in the interdisciplinary field of human-computer interactions. He has been: Manager of User Interface Theory and Design at IBM's Thomas J. Watson Research Center (1976-1994); a professor in Computer Science at Virginia Tech (through 2003); and is currently (2018) Distinguished Professor and co-Director of the College of Information Sciences and Technology's Laboratory for Computer Supported Collaboration and Learning at Pennsylvania State University. He is also the Director of the university's Center for Human-Computer Interaction. He has received numerous awards, especially for his contributions to Information Technology and its relationship with humans. ~Compiled from MIT Press and Penn State University: https://jcarroll.ist.psu.edu/ (Retrieved 2018, September 7.)
