Instructional Design Successes in Teaching

Purpose & objective

Abstract: Presenters will provide a visually engaging presentation on instructional design successes. Faculty work collaboratively with designers to create unique, one-of-a-kind media projects to engage students beyond written text and lecture. Presenters will provide examples of interactive and instructional media that strives for inclusion by providing learning modalities to students with a variety of different learning styles. Individualized student feedback on media demonstrates success from a program-perspective.

Learning Objectives
1. Defining multi-modal content in the context of the learning environment.
2. Identifying uses of media to promote learning.
3. Examining implementation of media content in online learning environments.

5. Expand on equity and diversity (need, role in media) (5 minutes)
6. Discuss student response (1 minute)
7. Future implications (2 minutes)
8. Questions (5 minutes)

Supporting research

Content is new/innovative - instructors are working with the Center for Instructional Design to create unique media projects for each course to enhance student learning from a perspective that is more diverse and equitable than traditional learning environments. Much of the research that exists is on the use of social media or technology (Zoom) to facilitate learning. This approach being presented is novel.
