  • Your goal: Our goal is to teach educators how to integrate technology into their everyday lessons. More importantly how to integrate technology effectively for their grade level. 
  • Your target audience: Our target audience is K-2 teachers, but in all reality can be applied to many different grade level educators. 
  • Your prior knowledge on the topic of this project: Throughout our many classes in this program, we have learned about different tools that we can implement into our classrooms. I believe it is just as important to know not only how to integrate, but how to do it effectively where it not only benefits the teacher with teaching but for their students. 
  • Name of the project and any organization supporting or sponsoring it: As our idea is still fresh, Betsy and I are brainstorming a name  for our project, but hope that it will help many educators who are still in need. There are many organizations that support technology integration in schools. We will do more research and see all the possibilities. 
  • Key players or possible contacts/contributors to the project: Again, this idea was newly thought of by Betsy and I, but we briefly brainstormed some possible contacts for our project, including technology representatives from our school districts, administration, our grade level staff, and tech coordinators from our schools.
  • Conditions under which the project will be carried out, such as resources and constraints: Many of the constraints being that much of communication with outside resources will have to be communicated via Zoom and email. I enjoy talking more in person and building relationships, but with COVID, it makes it quite impossible. Some other constraints to consider is that not all educators have access to different programs or trainings based of district budgets and needs.

  • My project is as follows
  • Your goal:
  • My goal is to help new Instructional Designers graduates with relevant information and resources to use when venturing out to the world of instructional design. Through this platform I will interview professionals in the field to give advice or answer pressing questions from many of our soon to graduate or graduates or those who wish to do career change.
  • Your target audience 
  • The soon to be instructional Design graduates, Graduates who look for ID jobs, and those who wish to make a career change. 
  • Your prior knowledge on the topic of this project
  • Most of the things I know about instructional Design comes from the MA coursework and many research and projects done in the coursework like collaborative projects, interviewing SMEs and also attending ID conferences and following the gurus in this field in their social media and other platforms.
  • Name of the project and any organization supporting or sponsoring it.
  • Tool box For The ID NewBie. (ReImagining Black Relations.)
  • Key players or possible contacts/contributors to the project.
  • Jill Davidian, Javeri, Chen, experts
  • Conditions under which the project will be carried out, such as resources and constraints.
  • The project will be a podcast. It will require a computer, internet and good microphone for recordings and the disk to store the episodes. The constraints would be that it would be conducted remotely because of COVID-19 pandemic.

Other goals include helping first generation students become more encouraged or motivated through online learning within the Engineering Department (Formal and Informal Settings.)
    Target Audience: Students within The College of Engineering, Computer Science, and Technology (ECST) and other students aspiring to study in that particular field.
    Prior Knowledge: The knowledge and understanding of Instructional Design Models and Theories will be used as part of the research process and connecting them to current learning gaps/challenges students are having. Specifically Participatory Design Thinking will be explored and used as a framework to find the best resolutions.
    Name of Project/Organization: Using Asset-based Participatory Design Thinking to Develop Culturally-Relevant
    STEM Video Modules to Promote Intrinsic Motivation - College of Engineering (CSULA)
    Key Players/Contact: Dr. Jim Kuo, Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering (Email: jkuo7@calstatela.edu)
    Conditions: Constant review of storyboards and completion of prototype of video for engineering students will be completed within the time frame of the Spring Semester. Meetings will be held often to provide feedback through research and other work conducted.
