There is significant potential for error in long production processes that consist of sequential stages, each of which is heavily dependent on the previous stage, such as the SER (Scoring, Equating, and Reporting) process. Quality control procedures are required in order to monitor this process and to reduce the number of mistakes to a minimum. In…

Storyboarding, the process of sketching visual and narrative information to plan media productions, can be an effective tool for designing instructional materials. Storyboarding enables organization and sequencing, expansion and reduction of content, text development, selection of production medium, and formulation of sensitive evaluation…

The teaching guide outlines developmentally sequenced activities for learning the basic computational skills. Sections cover sequential steps for the addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of whole numbers; information on developing building kits and sample worksheets; the use of number sheets (sample sheets are provided); and the use…

Operationalizes the theoretical foundation of Gagne's model as a component in the instructional design process. The description of design techniques includes a sample media analysis, and a sample sequence worksheet. (JEG)

Paper presented at the California Educational Research Association Annual Meeting (Berkeley, California, March 1968).

The document provides a reference system to published materials which have been found useful in the development of individualized education plans as prescribed by P.L. 94-142, the Education for All Handicapped Children Act. The system is designed to provide ordering information and a description of resource materials, which include tests,…

THE PROGRAM OF INSTRUCTION IN ENGLISH CONSISTS OF A NUMBER OF VERTICAL STRANDS RUNNING FROM KINDERGARTEN THROUGH GRADE 12 AND BEYOND. THE READING STRAND IS PREPARED ON THE SEQUENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OF SKILLS. FIVE UNITS--WORK ATTACK SKILLS, VOCABULARY, ACQUISITION SKILLS, COMPREHENSION SKILLS, AND CRITICAL AND INTERPRETIVE READING--ARE DEVELOPED AND…

THIS VOLUME IS AN APPENDIX TO ED 003 346. SAMPLE COPIES OF THE TESTS AND INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS USED IN THE STUDIES ARE INCLUDED. DESCRIPTIONS INCLUDE EXPERIMENTS ON DISCOVERY VERSUS EXPOSITORY SEQUENCING IN A PROGRAMED UNIT ON SUMMING NUMBER SERIES. THESE MATERIALS ARE PRESENTED TO PROVIDE CONCERNED PERSONS WITH A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE…

Reviews the English curriculum materials developed by the University of Oregon, and the Carnegie Institute of Technology. (DS)

This study looks at a specific application of Ainsworth's conceptual framework for learning with multiple representations in the context of using multiple sequential graphic organizers that are student-generated for a process-writing task. Process writing refers to writing that consists of multiple drafts. It may be a process of re-writing without…

This valuable resource provides instructional designers with the guidance they need to meet the challenge of creating effective and efficient instruction. Maintaining a careful balance between theory and application, the Fifth Edition presents a practical, easy-to-follow approach to instructional design that can be applied to K-12 classrooms,…

Objective rules of sequencing were applied to elementary level instructional material to determine their effect on time, errors made during instruction, and posttest errors. Results are discussed in terms of the application of the rules to various types of instructional material. (Author/BJG)

The course contains rationales, objectives, and learning activities divided into task packages for a sequence of 12 typewriting units for the secondary school level. Unit one on the keyboard covers techniques, machine parts, spacing after punctuation and keyboard symbols, and proofreading and erasing. Unit two on typing essentials covers…

The developmental mathematics program described in this report is offered at Mohawk Valley Community College (New York) as a self-paced, semi-programmed sequence of units covering signed numbers and beginning algebra. The paper begins by establishing the need for such a program, explaining that in Fall 1979 it became evident that the college's…
