Instructional Technology

Introduction Training and teaching are both facets of the process of learning. It is challenging to establish the distinction between the two terms, as both lead to creation and installation of something in the person.

These terminologies connect the concepts used in the process of learning. The key essentials of learning incorporate both educational and instructional technologies.

In my initial definition of curriculum, I talked about it being the academic content that includes the learning objectives and the standards for any subject to be taught in schools. The curriculum is a guide that enables teachers to teach any particular course. The curriculum must consider all teaching aspects such as lesson plan, assignments, books, tests, and all materials that are important in the learning environment. However, the curriculum should not consider the resources, or requirements of the learning environment such as money, space, or internet access. My definition of curriculum is strongly related to teaching and learning because ...

An Overview

Improvement in student engagement and learning has been directly linked to writing. However, writing-to-learn (WTL) practices have not been applied in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). In particular, research universities have not taken steps with regard to this process. The absence of a scientific community that is essential for carrying out and applying the required pedagogical research is one ...

These forms of evaluation succeed the placement and diagnostic evaluation and are done after instruction mainly on an objective or a series of such objectives. As the name suggests, formative evaluation is progressive and normally done throughout the learning curriculum, normally to determine the progress of students towards the attainment of certain objectives.

Behaviourism was used as a medium of learning during this era, between 1900 and 1950. Instructors mostly used the famous theories in delivering their learning objectives to ...
