I don't think that's unique to overwhelm students with this topic. There's so much to learn. I've actually done some edits to an online course (minor edits because I didn't own the content) and I noticed that the course was jam packed with things and the flow needed some work. I also like your idea about applying a constructivist epis. Do you have any ideas on how to start this? Hi there. I don’t think that’s unique to overwhelm students with this topic.

I also like your idea about applying a constructivist epis. Do you have any ideas on how to start this?

In thinking about the design of this course and Ped 1 and the content of both, here are a few ideas. Ped 1 concentrated a lot on discussing collaborative learning, the aspect of community, and some learning theory. Ped 2 combined learning theory and ID. We had the thought that Ped 1 should focus primarily on learning theories. Ped 2 should then focus specifically on instructional design and the different ID models. As a beginning instructional designer who has not yet developed intuitive knowledge when it comes to ID, it would be helpful to more fully discuss the question, "Which ID model do I use?" So, discuss the different environments (K-12, adult ed, etc.) and which models would work within these frames, or how to select the best model for the type of instruction that is being developed. Perhaps some small ID projects throughout the semester using various models? I don't know if this is possible or even a good idea, but just some suggestions. -JoAnne I was discussing your ID course (Ped 2) during the last weeks of the semester.
