Selecting and Using Technology
In this module we are looking at ways in which we choose to use technology.
Bates(2003) created a model in which course developers can refer to help them choose a suitable technology for their specific need. The introduction to this model came at a perfect time. I am currently in the process of converting a face-to-face class to an online class. I am in the very beginning stages and have not yet chosen the individual technologies I am going to use. I am using the ASSURE model described by Samldino (2011) to assist in the in instructional design aspect of my online course, however it does not give detail about how to choose each technology.
SECTIONS Model:
S - Students
E - Ease of use and reliability
C - Costs
T - Teaching and learning
I - Interactivity
O - Organizational Issues
N - Novelty
S - Speed
ASSURE Model
A - Analyze learners
S - State objectives
S - Select methods, media and materials
U - Utalize media and materials
R - Require learner participation
E - Evaluate and revise
Wish list
Now having knowledge of the SECTIONS model it will absolutely be useful when choosing technologies in MDDE 610, and in my career. However, I do wish there was a concrete flow chart system available that you could follow, answer some questions and it would automatically determine the best technology for the job. I understand with the vast amount of technologies out there and the fact that new technologies are popping up everyday, this would be near to impossible, but a girl can dream.
