ASSURE IS VERY HELPFUL 3.7.4

The whole new experience of lesson planning using ASSURE is getting more interesting. I have now attempted to write objectives, select media and materials using all this to come up with an almost complete lesson plan. You are actually in position to visualise your lesson before hand much more clearly than before. I have even come up with a plan B that ensures that nothing really goes wrong. I want to try out this lesson and see how it gets along when I am done with the whole lesson plan.

We have continued to discuss with friends in the group forum and everyone seems to be so enthusiastic about this experience. At first, it was difficult to detect flaws in sample ASSURE lesson plans but I can now do it with ease. In the group forum, I have been able to detect when objectives are not stated well especially when they lack the measurement criteria.

  1. Your blog is looking great. I like that comment about visualising. It is a sign of good planning.

Bring Your Own Device 7.5.4

I was not so familiar with BYOD until after this lesson. It was something that I associated with the corporate world (and not the classroom) - with big organisations allowing their employees to bring their own devices to work as a measure of motivating them with the feeling of greater contribution to the company. BYOD assumes many models in classroom learning which generally allow learners to bring their own devices to school. The devices brought may or may not be dictated upon by the school but, ideally, must be those that support the teaching and learning process. Looking at BYOD now in the classroom context,it is to me more of a challenge than an idea to implement. I see it as something that is long over due and I consider myself little bit behind schedule with a lot to get done. I have particularly taken interest in the cell phone as a device I feel would bring more success in meeting teaching and learning objectives in my classroom. Why you may ask? Well, it is a device that I ...
