In this session I worked on the group project with the other members of the group. I was given the part of context Analysis Report to research. It was difficult to understand at first. I had to go to blackboard to read up on the topic. I read my coarse outline and I went on google to research the topic to get information. I did not get very far. I even ask the lecturer Ms Cielto, she told me what to do. I think when I get to doing it, it will become easier. I really look forward to attending the Instructional Design Classes to acquire knowledge to be of assistance to pupils who may have problems learning, to be able to identify where their problems lies.
Let us discuss how technology is shaping the natural and man-made environment and affecting schools in Trinidad and Tobago.

In this session we did evaluation Miss Cielto went through the explanation step by step as how she will normally do. It was simple to follow. I really enjoyed the exercise because it is what I normally do at school . I did attempt writing questions for evaluation. I also worked on the project for the term which was a bit wide and confusing.I was trying to understand how to go about doing the project. Our group members went and discuss it with the lecturer to get an idea on how to go about doing it. I made an attempt at it. The project is a difficult task to do, but with the help of God we will get there.

In this session we did Information Theory Process. In this lesson we look deeper into objectives. The types of objectives written.The information given in this lesson is a bit wide, but understandable. When I attend class, I have a problem getting on to blackboard. Even at home I have a problem getting on to blackboard which makes it difficult for me to read the previous notes and the notes for the lesson to come.I enjoy this session, it was interesting and I have benefited from attending the class. I have to make the time to read the notes that you have posted up on the blackboard and what you have taught in your class it will all come back to me.

In this session we did objectives and strategies. I understood objectives from using it in my scheme and writing lesson plan at my school and I know about using different strategies when I am planning my lessons to teach.As Ms Cielto explain objectives and strategies to the students in the class it became clearer to me. What I have learnt in my Instructional Design class I have tried to apply to my practicum class. It was very difficult to use the information from the instructional design to plan lessons, it is time consuming, it is difficult to come with the required objectives and to get objectives for the different domains.

In his session we had to go into google docs find the lesson plan that was posted by one of our group member.Each member of the group worked on a different concept from the lesson plan. In this session which deals with content Analysis we had to go into details step by step and what was interesting is that you can get the step by step process on the computer on google which makes life simple you don't have to come up with your own findings.What is really interesting and exciting about using google docs is that you can stay at home and see each member contribution that they make to the project.

In this session each group had to present their lesson plan. I was able to hear each group presentation. The presentation was interesting and rewarding. Each member had their part to contribute to the presentation. I think my knowledge has increase about lesson plans.some members of different groups encountered difficulties reaching to class to participate in the presentation. Our lecturer was kind to wait patiently for them to arrive.In that session we were introduced to instructional design ADDIE it is a model for instructional designers.

In this session , we went to another lab to conduct our class. The computers in the lab that we were accustom going to was not working well. In the previous class I misplace my notebook that I will normally used , I thought I had left it in the other lab. In this session we were suppose to develop a lesson plan which would demonstrate attention to four instructional design theories. We were also to create a blog to reflex on each class that we attend. It was difficult locating my blog. The members of my group told me once you have a blog,it will be difficult to create another.

We log unto blackboard to get our assignment for the class session. The lecturer Ms Cielto went through the assignment with the class. We were to form ourselves into groups to do the assignment.We research the theories on the computer. Some of the theories I have encounter for the first time. We were able to link theories with activities.The three members of each group will present their findings. I was one of the members of the group who presented. I was a bit frighten having to talk in front of so many people. I enjoyed the exercise, listening to each group gave their views on the Theories we had to research. One of the members of my group commented that he was confused about the whole exercise.

I have always heard students at UTT talking about the subject Instructional Design.They will say it is a difficult subject to study and pass. My first encounter with the course, meeting my lecturer Ms Ronda Harvey Cielto for the first time, she seems like a nice person, very hard working and dedicated to her job.We were suppose to use the blackboard to do course. Ms Cielto was to get us signed in to blackboard. It was a difficult process because some of the computers were not working. We eventually got log in and their course was posted on blackboard with the lecturer telling us all about the course. She said it was a difficult course and we must not miss any of the classes. In that class she told us to form ourselves into group.
