What are the key components of instructional design?

• Analyzing learners, defining objectives, designing strategies, developing materials, implementing instruction, evaluating effectiveness

• Assessing technology

• Creating timelines

• Conducting surveys

Explain the difference between formative and summative assessment in instructional design.

• Formative assessment is for students, while summative assessment is for teachers.

• Formative assessment is quantitative, while summative assessment is qualitative.

• Formative assessment is ongoing and focuses on improvement, while summative assessment is final and focuses on evaluation.

• Formative assessment is only done at the end of a course, while summative assessment is ongoing.

How does the ADDIE model help in instructional design?

• The ADDIE model is not relevant to instructional design

• The ADDIE model helps in instructional design by providing a structured framework for designing and developing educational materials.

• ADDIE model is only used for project management, not instructional design

• ADDIE model is outdated and not effective in instructional design

What is the role of a subject matter expert in curriculum development?

• The role of a subject matter expert in curriculum development is to provide in-depth knowledge and expertise in a specific subject area, ensuring accuracy, alignment with standards, and contributing to teaching methods and assessment strategies.

• Subject matter experts have no input in the development of teaching methods or assessment strategies.

• Subject matter experts are responsible for administrative tasks in curriculum development.

• Subject matter experts focus solely on theoretical knowledge without practical application.

Discuss the importance of aligning curriculum with learning objectives.

• There is no need to match what students are taught with what they are expected to learn

• Curriculum alignment has no impact on student achievement

• Aligning curriculum with learning objectives is crucial for ensuring that what students are taught matches what they are expected to learn.

• Aligning curriculum with learning objectives is optional and not necessary

What is backward design in curriculum development?

• Backward design focuses solely on content delivery without considering assessments

• Backward design is a random selection of content without clear outcomes

• Backward design involves starting with instructional activities and then determining learning outcomes

• Backward design in curriculum development is an approach where educators first identify the desired learning outcomes and assessments before planning the instructional activities and content.

Explain the concept of scaffolding in instructional design.

• Scaffolding in instructional design is the support provided to learners as they move towards independent learning by breaking down tasks and gradually reducing support.

• Scaffolding in instructional design involves providing learners with all the answers to ensure they succeed.

• Scaffolding in instructional design is a technique used to speed up the learning process by skipping foundational knowledge.

• Scaffolding in instructional design refers to the physical structures used in construction projects.

How can technology be integrated into curriculum development?

• Identify learning objectives, select tools, design activities, provide training, evaluate impact.

• Provide no training and assume everyone knows how to use the technology

• Ignore learning objectives and randomly select tools

• Skip designing activities and hope for the best
