In chapter 10, Dr Norris completes the seven planning steps required to change your life. They include what, what for and how.
What - What do the learners need to know on the subjet? What will you be teaching and in what sequence?
What for - This step includes developing achievement objectives for the learner. What will they be doing with the content?
How - This seventh and final step asks how you will go about achieving the learning objectives set forth. It requires you to develop learning tasks, and learning tasks require application. Also, it's important to remember that an educator must provide the required materials to complete these tasks.
Note: A Learning Task Model may include: Anchor (Ground the topic in the learner's lives), Add (Provide the new information), Apply (Have learners do something with the information), and Away (Allow learners to move the information into the future) (p. 86).
Two key ideas I took away from this chapter include:
"We should typically be teaching half as much in twice the time" (p. 80). AND
"Tend to your beginnings and endings-the two strongest learning times" (p. 94).
Featuring a step-by-step workshop design model that will transform you, your teaching, and your learners!
