Select or Modify Existing Instructional Materials Challenges

Completed challenges will include a link to an artifact and a reflection.

#1a- Identify and select existing materials that support the content analyses proposed technologies, delivery methods, and instructional strategies. OR

Criteria for successful completion of this challenge: Evidence of selecting existing and creating instructional materials (lectures, readings, textbooks, multimedia components, Open Educational Resources, simulations, and other resources) based on instructional strategies, delivery methods and/or content.  Reflection must address: The connection between your content analysis and the instructional materials you selected – what experiences did you have to help make these decisions.

#1b- Integrate existing instructional materials into the design.

Criteria for successful completion of this challenge: Evidence of finding pre-existing instructional materials (lectures, readings, textbooks, multimedia components, Open Educational Resources, simulations, and other resources) and adding them into a design choice(s) or instructional plan to increase the learning value of the overall design. Reflection must address: How adding instructional materials into a design choice or instructional plan increased the value of the overall design (remember to discuss the permission aspects of the preexisting documents – did you obtain permission, copyright, reuse rights, etc.); how you selected the material; why the selected material is appropriate in your design; and/or discussing any evaluation criteria for selection of the materials.
