I love the photos of your cute family members. Your photo editing made the photos look so different. The floor where the cat is on was kind of messy in the first photo, but when it is darkened it brings the attention to the cute cat. In the second photo the dog’s fur looks so much whiter after editing and it stands out much more than the original photo.
Well done on the video using Openshot video editor. I like watching the interactions between the person in the video and the two pets! Through your reflection I also see what Openshot video editor could do and some of its nice features it has. I also want to ask about the content of the video. Is it a video shot to record lovely moments of life? Or did you have other purposes when you edited the video?
I really like your clear and structured post for this week’s topic. I also appreciate your thoughts on the UDL, UID and UBD. I also agree about your thoughts that suggests public learning materials should provide access to learning contents for not only general students but also students with special needs. In my post for this week, I also mentioned that it is important for learning contents to think about giving access to students with obstacles in learning, such as hearing loss or visual impairments. Everyone deserves equal opportunities to learn and it shouldn’t be stopped by their certain physical limits.
I also think your idea that states “Each student chooses their own unique path of learning without being forced to do something they don’t like to do.” is interesting. I think this idea is a student centered idea that would be great for individual learning and development. However, I would like to provide a thought on this: Do you think this kind of idea would be easy to put into practice? Especially for schools with limited resources on teachers and/or teaching resources? Although it would be ideal that every student could learn according to their own pace and preferences, I think it might be a way that would require special attention from the teachers’ side. Do you have any suggestions on how to put this kind of thinking in use, so that most students could get treated according to their individual pace and preference on study?
I really like your designs! The color combinations look so natural and matching. Your first poster about the yard sale emphasized on the topic which focuses on the point and also has the detailed information. It looks very functional and attractive.
The second series of your brochures have very nice colors too. They look very calming and relaxing. I noticed there are more information on the second series of brochures and wonder whether they are designed to be the same yard sale as the first poster. If so the huge difference between the first poster and the second brochure series to me is a little abrupt. But they are both very nice designs and you did a great job!
I really like your three examples on each of the learning paradigms. They made it more clear on what these three paradigms are about when used in actual learning practices.
One question I would ask about the behaviorism part is whether you think repetition itself is a kind of punishment or do you think of the action of writing the words 5 times a boring thing thus being a punishment? I personally think that repetition itself wouldn’t count as a punishment because it does not trigger any neural reaction unless the repetition is kind of painful that it creates a kind of fear or disgust every time you couldn’t memorize a word. I think repetition may be more in the cognitivism paradigm because repeating is also you reflecting on the spelling. Tell me what you think!
I also totally agree with you about gamification being a very good way of learning when it is gamified well. It makes some learning contents that would have been boring more interesting and appealing.
I really like your post about interactive and multimedia learning. Your brief introduction to interactive media with a video link explaining in details is very well designed. I think it is a very good compensation to what we have learned from the class materials.
I also really like that you listed four advantages of interactive media and I also think it is important that we are all familiar with these advantages to be able to use them in the design of learning contents.
The structure of your post is very clear and logical. You started with introducting interactive media and its advantages, and then the multimedia learning. It prepares the readers who doesn’t know much about the topic and gets the readers to understand this content step by step.
