The Role of Instructional Media

January 7, 2011

Being enrolled in EdTech 101 of course we have to be aware of the different media that we're using. Therefore, we have to know how to choose appropriate Instructional Media. First thing that we have to consider in selecting media is practicality, there are some situations that the use of instructional media couldn't be use in some schools because they lack some facilites. With that reason it becomes a hindrance for us to be able to use Instructional Media. Next is the appropriateness in relation to learner's characteristics, we can't just let the pupils be expose with different kinds of media without taking into consideration your learners' behaviors. Using instructional media must also match the activity that the class will be doing and lastly to match the objective. A teacher won't just let his/her students to watch a film just for them to enjoy and not prioritize the objectives to be done.

We must also know how to develop assessment tools and for this to be valid it must be able to measure what it intends to measure. The objectives serves as the basis upon which to develop the assessment tool.Lastly conditions involved in the assessment tool match the conditions specified in the objectives. Therefre un making IPs we must be coherent so that all the activities, objectives and intructional media will be appropriate and efficient in teaching.
