TE 810 Design & Development of Instruction - Instructional Unit
Reflective Statement:
This PowerPoint presentation was created for the class TE 810 Design and Development of Instruction. It was important to start off with this class, as a foundation for the rest of my Masters' program, in that it addresses the important principles associated with creating a course, gathering information and presenting instructional content.
Process Statement:
In this work I was able to incorporate the main instructional design principles through the creation of an actual unit of instruction (which I have successfully taught to Army soldiers). Additionally a video was incorporated into the instructional unit to enhance realism and improve the instructional effect.
Assessment Statement:
I believe the overall project was very successful in both displaying the knowledge learned in the class as well as being a useful unit of instruction to be utilized in instructing soldiers. I think that the strong points of this presentation are: organization, flow and use of interaction and multimedia. Instructional design skills learned include: systems approach model, goal analysis, instructional strategies and assessments.

This presentation has a nice logical trajectory, and the lessons taught seem critical for proper infantry engagement with an enemy.
I wasn't sure if the video was suppose to play, but it wouldn't work on my computer.
Thank you very much for your comment. The video link has been fixed.
One question is how you can train people to perform under duress / stress and with changing outside elements. How do you increase human retention? How do you ensure "high reliability" in the actions? This looks very tidy. I would hope that in the teaching / debriefing that variations on the cleanness of this would be posted.
You posed some interesting questions Shalin. First, I slowly build up soldiers ability to perform the task by having classroom classes, then walking through it, then running through it. We practice this several times making it more and more realistic. When the soldier has to do something like this on the battle field, he/she would react more out of instict as apposed to a slow logical decision. The goal is to have the reaction that ingraned in the soldier so that they do the right thing. In the military an AAR (After Actions Review) is conducted after any training session to identify any strengths and weaknesses so as to improve.
Brent, The video worked for me and allowed me to hear the sounds of war. Something I was not quite prepared for.
