courses

1. Self-paced courses taken by a solo learner

2. Performing simulated activities which leads toan ultimate discovery

3. Using the aid of mobile devices (i.e. smart

phones and tablets) to learn from any location

4. Interacting through a community of expertsand other learners (i.e. blogging, socialnetworks)

5. Online classrooms functioning like physicalclassrooms, with reading, discussions,presentations, homework, and social media(Horton, 2011, p. 2)

Apply design at every level of e-learningfrom curricula to the chosen media (see Fig. 1)

Just enough good design determines everything and can prevent failures(Horton, 2011, p. 3).

Intelligences such as spatial (visual

images), may cater to someone with

an artistic flair. This person could

design or visualize a finished product

such as a slide presentation.

The logical or mathematical

intelligence may be able to rationalize

why or how humankind succumbs to

destructive behaviors.

The existential intelligence (ability to

consider and deal with questions of

human existence) imbibes the depthevery human being ultimately desires

in life (Lever-Duffy & McDonald, 2011,

pp. 34-35). This particular intelligence

may be able to sum up how humanity

may overcome the tendency to

diminish the existence of diversity.

Steps to ensure proper sequencing will determine the success of the assignment.

For example, all activities need a beginning, a middle, and an end.

1. Introduce the topic or activity, articulate desired outcome;2. Provide teacher expectations of the students;

3. Carefully detail the process of reaching the goal;4. Communicate the evaluation criteria and/or rubric;5. Communicate and provide feedback, and listen to feedbackfrom students upon completion.
