An Introduction to Online Teaching and Learning

• Good teaching is good teaching, no matter how
  its done.

2
Applying CLT to your Online Lessons

• What do I need to do?

3
VISUAL

AUDITORY
Sweller refers to these as SCHEMAS
4
FOCUS your learners Attention

Multimedia Principle

• Use WORDS and GRAPHICS rather than words or
  pictures alone

Separation of text and graphics on scrolling
screens
15
The Contiguity Principle

• On-screen words need to be placed near the parts
  of the on-screen graphics to which they refer.

16
An effective example
17
Split-Attention Effect

• Text and graphics compete
• Instruction NEEDS to integrate graphics and text.
• Splitting the learners attention IMPAIRS
  learning and imposes a HEAVY load on working
  memory.

Test To test Insulation Resistance from
conductors to earth.How conducted i )
Disconnect appliances and busways during these
tests. Make sure mainswitch is "on" and all fuses
are "in". Remove main earth from neutral bar and
set meter to read insulation. Connect one lead to
earth wire at MEN bar and take first measure by
connecting the other lead to the active. Take
next measure by connecting the lead to the
neutral.ii) If resistance is not high enough in
either of the two tests in i) then measure each
circuit separately.Results required i) At
least One Megaohmii) Same result as i) above

PROBLEM WITH OVERLAP
Heres the link to the FACT SHEET
The FACT SHEET COMPLETELY COVERS the task
underneath it
BUT
21
The Redundancy Principle
22
Redundant textual information in a dual format
23
Redundant information in an integrated format
24
Modality Principle

• Use of AUDIO instead of written
• See a graphic and hear an explanation
• Be careful of TOO much visual or graphic
  information

25
Applying the COHERENCE PRINCIPLE

• Adding interesting BUT unnecessary material to
  e-learning can harm the learning process in
  several ways
• DISTRACTION
• DISRUPTION (appropriate links are NOT made
  between elements on page)
• SEDUCTION - you like them, but they dont
  contribute to LEARNING

• Hi, Im Sol and Im here to bring a ray of help
  about understanding Photon Flux.
• When you calculate photon flux you need to do the
  following
• Youd then provide your learners with the break
  down

33
Next principle

• Using PRACTICE EXAMPLES

34

35
Practice Examples should mirror the job
36
Critical tasks Require More practice
37
Frequent Practice exercises are distributed
throughout the lesson
38
Train learners to Self-Question During Receptive
e-Lessons

• So have questions on your PRACTICE page that
  include phrases like
• What would happen if
• How would you use this to
• Explain why
• Why is important?
• What are the strengths and weaknesses of
• How would this affect
• How does this effect

39
Use Worked Examples
40
This provides numerous worked examples
