Integrating Pedagogy and Instructional Design in the eLearning Approach for the Teaching of Mathematics

چکیده
As eLearning is becoming more readily available and accessible in formal and informal contexts, more education institutions, including schools, are developing courses virtually. Educators are gradually incorporating elements of eLearning in the discussions on integrating pedagogy and instructional design. Such integration is increasingly important in mathematics as the subject involves thinking and creativity; readiness to face ambiguous problems and ability to refine them into a clearer conceptualization and ability to analyze problems using the heuristic approach. Realizing the importance of the integration, a study is being undertaken to develop a suitable instructional design model using the eLearning approach. The use of such approach would enhance literacy and motivate interest towards mathematics. The instructional design model incorporates the elements of Mathematical Approaches, Lesson Sequencing, Interactive Multimedia, Systematically Designed and Developed Teaching and Learning Modules and Submodules, and Holistic Development of Students.

Building an e-Learning System Model with Implications for Research and Instructional Use
This paper demonstrates a model of an e-Learning system based on nowadays learning theory and distant education practice. The relationships in the model are designed to be simple and functional and do not necessarily represent any particular eLearning environments. It is meant to be a generic e-Learning system model with implications for any distant education course instructional design. It all...

متن کاملIntroducing Culturally-Adaptive English Language Pedagogy (CELP): Integrating Critical Cultural Awareness through the ‘little-c’ Culture in Iran’s EFL Curriculum
In teaching a foreign language (FL), some cultural specificities (defined under the rubric of ‘little-c culture’) may totally conflict with the cultural norms of the learners’ first language (L1). To prevent such imminent problems, this paper recommended that the FL syllabus be designed in a way so as to equip learners with an intimate knowledge of the target language culture, and that la...
متن کاملA Validated Framework for Gamified Electronic Teaching of English Language with a Systemic Approach to Instructional Design
One way of making learning English language interesting is through its gamified instruction, especially nowadays that most teachings are done virtually. Doing so, however, requires a valid framework. To construct such a framework a set of 22 peer reviewed papers on language learning and gamified teaching, from among 94 of such papers, was content analyzed and key concepts, and frequently used e...
