No single logic is strong enough to support the total construction of human knowledge. - Jean Piaget |
IDT- (Instructional Design and Technology) Micro Masters was created by Trine Mork (bio here) as a personal e-portfolio for the set of MOOCs offered by University of Maryland University College and the University System of Maryland comprising the Instructional Design and Technology MicroMasters series on EdX.com. Currently, these include IDT100x Instructional Design and Technology: Learning Theories and IDT200x Instructional Design and Technology: Instructional Design Models.

About IDT
|
IDT Site Purpose
|
|
IDT, The Instructional Design and Technology MicroMasters Program, is designed to develop theoretical and technical competencies necessary for designing online learning experiences. To obtain the Instructional Design and Technology MicroMasters Credential, learners must successfully pass and receive a verified certificate in each of the four Instructional Design and Technology MicroMasters Program courses (LDT100x~400x) as well as successfully pass a final capstone project review. LDT100x is Learning Theories, and the current course, LDT200x, is Instructional Design Models.

This site aims to show evidence of my applied learning of instructional design and technology through the pages it contains. I will be neither extensive in breadth nor depth, but will hopefully provide an artifact at course series completion that may prove as potentially helpful to others as it is becoming to to me.

IDT100x:
A learning theory is "a set of constructs linking observed changes in performance with what is thought to bring about those changes" (Driscoll, 2000). I investigated five major theories in this course - Behaviorism, Constructivism, Cognitivism - as compared with Connectivism, and Angragogy. Driscoll, M. P. (2000). Psychology of learning for instruction (2nd Ed.). Needham Heights, MA: Allyn & Bacon. |
IDT200x:
Instructional design models provide "guidelines to organize appropriate pedagogical scenarios to achieve instructional goals." (Gustafson & Branch, 2002). I was introduced to five + important IDS models in this course. Gustafson, K. L., & Branch, R. M. (2002). What is instructional design. Trends and issues in instructional design and technology, 16-25. |
