How to Design Courseware (Instructional Courseware Design)

In simple word,  any meaningful lesson can help maximizing the acquisition of knowledge and skill which however are needs of learner, define the learning objectives and can create some intervention in order to achieve objectives.

First thing first, to apply CALL it is best to get to know behavourist and constructivist learning theories beforehand.
Learners’ needs
·       Learners’ current skill/knowledge
·       Needs analysis has to be conducted with the syllabus, conducting survey, free writing and public reports.
·       Adjust lesson according to students’ needs
Learning outcomes
·       Input students get/learn/achieve at the end of lesson
·       Ensure the learning outcomes is measurable to monitor students’ achievements
Instructonal design
·       About creating syllabus to be used in the class based on the needs analysis, lesson planning, material selection & planning of implementation & intention

Thus, to develop a courseware, a framework based on Addie model is necessary for the development of instructional coursework.


1)     ANALYSIS
Idenitfy the objectives, learners level and needs.
Somes of Q might be helpful in analysis:
·       What are the learners? What is the desired behaviour of achievement? What are the delivery options? What are the learning theories applied?

2)     DESIGN
It involves with the learning objections, learners needs, learning theorires, materials, exercises and content.
Creating a stroyboard of what the courseware should looks like to help us keeping track with the project.

3)     DEVELOPMENT
The stage where the developer (teacher/programmer) create and assemble content and assets based on the blueprint in the design phase.

The Creators
The Testers
Who are responsible in developing the graphic & materials then integrate into courseware.
Who will check for bugs and errors then give feedback on the design.

4)     IMPLEMENTATION
The stage where the creators will develop procedures for the implementation of  the courseware.
It includes training facilitators and learners to use courseware.
By then, lesson plan is developed to suit the courseware.

5)     EVALUATION
The stage where the impact and the effectiveness of the courseware is evaluated.

Introduction to CALL; Computer Assisted Language Learning

Image
CALL is a term used to refer to the area of technology and second language teaching and learning. It refers to method of application of the computer to assist in language teaching and language learning. Furtermore, it heavily involves material designs, technologies, pedagogical theories and modes of instruction. CALL covers any process in which learners have to use computers in order to learn a language; this process helps learners to improve their language capabilities and proficiency.  1. CALL - Specific Software Have you ever played  duolingo   or used a prezi  before? Duolingo and prezi are the example of CALL Specific Software (CSS).  CSS is the applications and programs designed specifically to facilitate language learning. It could include web-based exercises, ELT-Software and language games.  2. Generic Software These are the software originally installed in your computer the first time you purchased it. Microsoft...

In a nutshell

Now we have hit the ver last part on Internet Technology subject, I shall say it is a huge relieve but having time learning with Madam Azidatun is such a pleasure. Thank you for assigning the quiz by end of the semester too hehehe. To be honest, I'm not a tech-savvy but my curiosity is at its best so it is fun and interesting for gaining knowledge learning this course. I have better preview on CALL topic, how to create a courseware using SmartBuilder, podcast and Powtoon. Most of the tasks given were homework so I was also struggling with time management this semester, glad I made it! Wohoo! Here's the snippet of our last task: Last but not least, thanks a bunch to Madam Azidatun for her never ending patience, guidance and kindness throughout the semester, you rock! (even though you're preggie) THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING! xoxo Hasta la Vista, peeps! ❤

Podcast

I ever heard of podcast but never really knew what does it means. Well then, this class taught me that basically podcast is an audio or video file (mp3, mp4 etc) that is published or "broadcast" on the internet. The funny thing is I know what it is as I get engaged with the internet but the term itself I seldom used. During the lecture, I discover that it is used to promote self-study and independent learning which made it compatible material to be used with CALL.  So let's move to the advantage of using podcast. As a degree student, I would recommend using podcast for study because it is accessible as long as you have had good internet connection. Whenever and wherever you are, you still can gain knowledge and information. In addition, you possibly get extra information from what you have gotten in the class lecture, if and only if you make the effort to rely on super easy way in finding info.  Other than that, I think podcast can also be helpful for note taking.
