I found this sight to be informative and interesting. Today I read about the 16 personality types classified by Myers and Briggs. Beginning with Introverted thinking which is a way of thinking and part of personality theories.

Successful learners start with a framework and the build on it with constructivism. Everything is subjective to what we already have acquired. Good teachers take a child from where they are and expand from there.

Second week post-ID&T Learning Theories and Instruction 6115 Dr.Huzari

This week I have somewhat of a better understanding of blogging. With trial and error I have been able to subscribe to many blogs. At times I was like a child in a candy shop and had difficulties choosing and narrowing in on a sight to address the neurological aspects of the brain.

The first concept that came to mind was Multiple Intelligences and I found and added many similar sights that I wanted to retain and keep in this blog. When you read through the list you will find several sightings of blogs that I found to be interesting, informative and clearly accessible to tutors, teachers, and professional development staff. If you look on my book list or to my complete profile and click on the link you will find a listing of those. Each had significance to my findings this week.

The next concept that came to mind was the brain itself. What does it look like? How is it structured? Which blogging sight can give me information that I would want to share with my classmates. The most informative and progressive sight I linked onto was suggested in Sharon Howard's blog. Being a visual learner I was curious to see the videos and relate it to Chapters 2 and 3 of Learning Theories and Instruction. The best way to tell you to find the videos are to google Brain, Mind,Consciousness, and Learning and scroll down to the video about Ted's Comments just below a blue image of a simulated picture of the brain. There you will find a video called Simulated Brain in a Super Computer.http://brainandlearning@blogerspot.com/2009/09

There are many concepts and links listed on the blog page that hopefully will be beneficial to this weeks learning and future references to learn.

Brain, Mind, Consciousness and Learning


This blogg I found to be creative and informative. It is part of a bloggspot called Brain, Mind, and Consciousness. The blogger Ted starts the presentation of the video with a mission to recreate a model of the brain using IBM high tech. computers. Using science, math, technology, art, philosophy, theology he explains the essential need for using advanced technology to create a 3 dimensional model of the brain using mathematical formulas.

The needs for this model included in the mission are to help in the understanding how the brain works to assist with the investigation of disease associate with mental illness. He also states nature of the mind and it's effect on a the concept of spreading peace and eliminating animal testing for brain research. All reasons very humanitarian and naturalistic. The richness of the language as well as the visual simulations of the brain on video assisted in the production of quite fascinating lecture on the brain. In reflection of another video presentation from this weeks resources 'Information Processing and the Brain' with Dr. Ormrod she states 'It seems that we don't think the way computers do. People don't work-don't think in that 'one thing leads to another automatically' kind of way. We tend to branch out in a lot of different directions all at once.

Blog Beginnings-6115 Learning Theory and Instruction

This is the first day of blogging in Learning Theory and Instruction. Unfortunately my first post was not saved so I am adding a second blog. In the past week I have viewed many bloggs and bookmarked, subscribed to, and acquired a starting point for blogging in Instructional Design. The most helpful was Wikipedia, which is considered to be a simple approach to understanding ID&T but clear and a step in the right direction. Identifying with the ADDIE theory of design explains a process that can be remembered and accessed quickly. ADDIE represents phrases associated with the process of design.

Analyze-analyze learner characteristics, task to be learned, etc.
Design-develop learning objectives, choose an instructional approach
Develop-create instructional or training materials
Implement-deliver or distribute the instructional materials
Evaluate-make sure the materials achieved the desired goal

The Youtube selections noted in the supplemental resourses was also a helpful starting point for defining, comparing, and explaining the nature of blogging. The artistic and visual representation was clever and informative paired with audio coordination.

The informational and instructional blogg sites I plan to use as reference for future blogging include the following. These sites provided an example of blogging to learn.

The articles I found to most informative while encorporating past theories in instructional design was Learning Theory. The encyclopedia of informational education. Retrieved from http//www.infed.org/biblio/b-learn.htm
