Instructional Design for Web-based Activities Development
نویسنده
چکیده
Traditionally, instructional design has adopted a behaviourist theoretical perspective, but with the influence of other major learning theories and the latest technological advances, cognitivist and constructivist perspectives have gained more predominance. Whichever approach we choose, if we want to take advantage of the web potential as an educational tool, we need to apply the basic components and principles of instructional design. Deciding to incorporate strategies from an objective theoretical approach or a constructivist one will depend on the learning circumstances. The intrinsic characteristics of the Web allow the learning process to be more cosntructivist and offer a wider space to design and implement activities based on the use of web resources and tools.
