There are standardized fonts, though sizes can be adjusted, and a large catalog of stock images. Designers can use their own media or import a stock image and set where the images are viewed (left, center, right). Videos can be linked or imported. There are a variety of assessment tools, but the content must be hosted within a LMS for clients to view learner progress.]]> 2023-07-12 04:07:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643245783 mgomez0324 https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643247074 While there are limitations, several features of Rise 360 enriched the design of our module. The various interactive components provided us with the opportunity to deliver content in creative ways. Originally, the content was delivered via PowerPoint and required limited learner interaction. By using the Rise 360 tools, we were able to animate that information to be more engaging for the learner. Instead of reading a list of outcomes, learners could be asked to flip cards to increase engagement.]]> 2023-07-12 04:09:44 UTC https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643247074 mgomez0324 https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643252005 2023-07-12 04:16:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643252005 mgomez0324 https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643257905 2023-07-12 04:22:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643257905 mgomez0324 https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643260682 One of the areas of concern for learners in any online course is cognitive load. Rise 360 has various tools that allow designers to ask learners to click, expand, and read information in sections. This helps the student to not overload their cognitive channels with information. Rise 360 also offers the ability to create flashcards to display information. These interactive tools were a positive feature in creating these modules, and should be very helpful to the learners.   ]]> 2023-07-12 04:25:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643260682 mgomez0324 https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643266155 2023-07-12 04:32:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643266155 mgomez0324 https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643282875 Accessibility is an important factor for consideration. It is possible to use existing PowerPoint slides in Rise 360. However, the group decided to use the information from the Blackboard PowerPoint modules to build new content into Rise 360 instead of screenshots of the slides. As we have limited information about the varied potential users of this learning module, we aimed to remove roadblocks where necessary without fundamentally changing content.]]> 2023-07-12 04:51:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643282875 mgomez0324 https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643287206 In the original content, the main task for the learner was to read the content from the PowerPoints and take the assessments to gauge learning. With our Articulate modules, the learner is engaging in several in-module activities that assess learning informally. We retained the style of in-module assessments as a form of formative assessment.  These assessments allow the learner to explore their current knowledge level with immediate feedback. ]]> 2023-07-12 04:56:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643287206 mgomez0324 https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643295359 In future iterations of this module, we would suggest hosting the module on a site that allows for record-keeping of test questions. This would help the client understand what learning gaps the teacher preparation courses still need to overcome and where learners are excelling. ]]> 2023-07-12 05:05:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643295359 mgomez0324 https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643296512 Another suggestion for improvement on this module is to include more media-based products for the consumer to use. Specifically in the modules surrounding spoken language (phonics and phonological/phonemic awareness), the subject matter experts could provide short videos with teaching tools for vowel sounds, diphthongs, and other spoken material. This would add a layer of improvement of the technology per the SAMR model and would also ensure that auditory learners have material that meets their learning style.]]> 2023-07-12 05:06:36 UTC https://padlet.com/mgomez0324/kftiij1d8hkuecpw/wish/2643296512
