Mellow, atmospheric, calming with a little melancholia. Reminiscent of a spring day in Paris that never was on a vacation I never took.

Instruction By Design

Season 01 - Episode 04: Moving beyond the textbook for learning materials

In this episode the instructional designers from Academic Innovation (Aaron Kraft, Steven Crawford, and Celia Coochwytewa) discuss the psychological gap that may occur between instructors and students in both online and in-person classrooms. We will share personal experiences from both an ID and instructor perspective for establishing presence while considering how instructional design is a component of instructor presence. Finally, we review the “quick n easy” ways to establish instructor presence online and in-person classrooms.

Season 01 - Episode 05: Instructor Presence (Both F2F and online)

In this episode the instructional designers from Academic Innovation (Celia Coochwytewa, Aaron Kraft, Steven Crawford, and Jinnette Senecal) define what is meant by “team-based” course design within higher education and describe the positive impact of team-based course building. We will also reflect on what is needed prior to building a team for course development.

Season 01 - Episode06: Team-Based Course Design

In this episode the instructional designers from Academic Innovation (Steven Crawford and Celia Coochwytewa) are joined by Tracy Mullen Cosker from the University of New Hampshire to discuss their experiences at the Online Learning Consortium’s 2017 Innovate Conference and how it relates to instructional designers working with faculty. We discuss different models that various institutions use in developing courses and how they prepare faculty for various teaching modalities. The conversation also includes trends that we are seeing at the conference at what it means for the future of education as well as how we can create a culture for academic innovation.

Kenneth, Are you falling for me

In this episode, the instructional designers from CONHI’s Academic Innovation (Jinnette Senecal, Celia Coochwytewa, and Aaron Kraft) recall times during their careers as educators when they were able to successfully solve real life learning problems using theories, models, and principles that we often read about in textbooks. They describe in detail how adult learning principles, the process of backwards design, and Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction can be utilized for building effective learning interventions. Lastly, they reflect on the effectiveness of these various solutions.

In this episode, the instructional designers from Academic Innovation (Jinnette Senecal, Celia Coochwytewa, and Aaron Kraft) describe the background and principles of the Transparency in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education project (TILT), an “award-winning national educational and research project that helps faculty to implement a transparent teaching framework that promotes college students’ success.” We then explore the features, applicability, and potential benefits of implementing transparent assignment design across a variety of disciplines and program levels.
