Instructional designers are the architects of learning experiences. In this episode, Parker Grant PhD, the co-founder of IDLance, an instructional design freelance agency, discusses the learning process, how to use learners' experiences to optimize education, and where instructional designers go for their story inspiration. Parker advises, “In adult learning, what's really important to know, is that all learning is experiential. What makes learning better is having a multifaceted approach, meaning you don't look at just any one mode of learning as the optimum, but the combination of many facets.”To these ends, Parker uses concept maps to create learning experiences. He finds that mental models help individuals to visualize other perspectives and shift mental models, thus encouraging consistent performance and improving outcomes. Parker describes the core characteristics of well-designed learning activities that allow us to deliver rich learning experiences for healthcare professionals and we discuss how simulations and case studies can enhance the learning experience through feedback and building consequences into the virtual experience.

Many of our courses are quite complicated with lots of interrelated concepts. Concept mapping helps educators to break down complex topics. They also allow students to organize new information and integrate this information with prior knowledge. Concept maps can be used for pre-assessments, assessments, brainstorming and idea generation, notetaking device, and much more. Educators can also use concept maps to plan courses and entire curricula. In this episode, I am going to highlight concept maps as a classroom learning and teaching tool. I will also share ideas and tools for implementing them in your classroom. Come learn more.

Wie kann man tiefergehendes Verständnis von Inhalten bei Lernenden gezielt fördern? Eine vielversprechende Möglichkeit sind sogenannte Concept Maps. Die Lehr-Lernforschung untersucht seit den 1970er Jahren, inwiefern die aktive Beschäftigung mit Lerninhalten beim Erstellen von eigenen Concept Maps oder Arbeiten mit vorgefertigten Concept Maps Wissenserwerb und Verständnis von Inhalten fördert. Die Metaanalyse »Studying and Constructing Concept Maps: a meta-analysis« von Schroeder, Nesbit, Anguino und Adesope (2017) fasst diese Befunde zusammen und zeigt, wie effektiv der Einsatz von Concept Maps im Unterricht im Vergleich zu anderen Methoden ist.

In this episode, the instructional designers from CONHI’s Academic Innovation (Jinnette Senecal, Celia Coochwytewa, and Aaron Kraft) discuss the characteristics of concept maps, mind maps, and other forms of information visualization, and consider how they might be implemented in the higher education environment. We then explore the variations in terminology, style, and application tools and strategies.

Web design skills are an important component of media literacy. The aim of our study was to promote university students’ web design skills through online design-based learning (DBL). Combined in a 2x2-factorial design, two types of scaffolding were implemented in an online DBL environment to support the students through their effort to design, build, modify, and publish web sites on processes and outcomes measures, namely collaboration scripts and incomplete concept maps. The results showed that both treatments had positive effects on collaborative (content-related discourse quality, collaboration skills, and quality of published web sites) and individual (domain-specific knowledge and skills related to the design and building of websites) learning outcomes. There was synergism between the two scaffolds in that the combination of the collaboration script and incomplete concept maps produced the most positive results. To be effective, online DBL thus needs to be enhanced by appropriate scaffolds, and both collaboration scripts and incomplete concept maps are effective examples.
This presentation will explore a Concept Mapping solution developed at University under funding by US government agencies. CMapServers are running around the world for accessing, publishing and collaborating in building Concept Maps. CMapTools, use of which can promote the development of high-order thinking skills, is a stand-alone application for developing Concept Maps that can be published to a CMapServer. These Concept Maps are capable of containing concept text and relationships, as well as rich multimedia elements and hyperlinks to other resources to support and inform the map.
