2. IX510 and IX520
This is a presentation of two courses built for the Masters in Instructional Design
for Kaplan University. The first course is IX510 Instructional Design, which was
built using a scenario/modeling approach. Students were given a task to build a
photography course. The course design required the students to role play.
The second course IX520 Needs Assessment and Evaluation in Education and
Training gave students a choice of corporate or educational scenarios. A
constructivist approach was used to design the course. Students were given
“Steps” to follow to ensure they understood the course projects.
Both courses made extensive use of Wikis, Journals and Blogs. Also a number of
learning objects were used including CodeBaby.
