Creating and Implementing Do-Type Learning Activities
A “do-type” activity is one that transforms information into knowledge and skills. There are a variety of do-type activities which include practice activities and discovery activities, as well as games and simulations.
Select a topic of interest to you (or your current class or company), conduct a needs assessment, and create a do-type activity. Your activity should provide 5 to 10 minutes of instruction. You can implement your activity using any of the following learning technologies:
Word or PDF document
PowerPoint presentation
Blog (submit the Web address of your blog)
Video (post your video on YouTube)
Podcast (submit the Web address of your podcast)
To perform your needs assessment, address the following:
What do you know?
What do you want to know?
What are you trying to measure, determine, or define?
How will you collect and record information.
How will you report the information you collect?
Are all interested groups included in planning and conducting the needs assessment?
Be sure to submit your needs assessment. You must include at least two references, in addition to the textbook. Sources must be formatted according to APA style guidelines as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Be sure to submit a Word document title page to the dropbox along with your completed assignment.
