Interactivity in a Spoken/Recorded Lesson
In this module, Introduction to Connected Learning, you will learn what connected learning is and why it is important, and evaluate your youth programs to see how well they incorporate connected learning principles.
Key Elements of Personalized Learning
Many young adults and college students begin transitioning into adulthood with distinct deficiencies in their kitchen skills. Kitchen skills are a daily life component useful in safely preparing nutritionally adequate meals. They can also serve the additional purpose of entertainment as a way to grow a love of cooking. These knowledge gaps affect their culinary performances and their abilities to thrive independently in the adult environment. To help fill these gaps, Chosen Ten Instructional Design has created an interactive digital learning course for incoming college students to learn about cooking and managing a personal kitchen. This interactive learning object intends to provide instruction on critical areas of kitchen safety that are relevant to these learners now and will increase their confidence in the kitchen as they progress through life. Consisting of an interactive PowerPoint with infographics, other interactive elements, and videos, this digital learning object has been uploaded to OER Commons, where it can be accessed by both the target learning group and anyone who feels that their culinary knowledge and skills require refreshing.

This is an Instructional Design Technology master's program assignment. It is a learning object created by me when I was in the first semester of my program.
Learning Progressions and Performance Assessment
This toolkit was developed by the Higher Education 4.0 instructional design (ID) team to help lecturers work with the IDs collaborative to produce a MOOC efficiently. The questionnaire within the overarching storyline interaction will also be added on OER Commons so you can duplicate and adapt it for your institute.

This MS Form should be used in conjunction with the MOOC development toolkit to support lecturers to build their MOOCs efficiently
Models of Personalized Learning
Motivating Students by Design (2018) explains how instructors can motivate students intentionally through the design of their courses. The two primary purposes of this book are to present a motivation model that can be used to design instruction and to provide practical motivation strategies and examples that can be used to motivate students to engage in learning. Based on decades of research, Dr. Brett Jones presents a framework to organize teaching strategies that motivate students. All of the strategies presented are followed by several examples, which provide readers with about 150 ideas for how the strategies can be implemented in courses. This book will be useful to graduate students and beginning professors, as well as professors who are more experienced and want to refine their instruction or try new strategies.

Navigation and Transitions in Online Units
The Faculty Quick Start Guide is an outcome of a project by ISKME, supported by a grant from the Michelson 20MM Foundation, to conduct a study and develop a set of resources to accelerate OER use for distance education, especially the urgent shift to remote learning during the pandemic in 2020. The Guide, created in collaboration with a selection of OER and online education champions across California community colleges (CCC), contains:
- Models and approaches to online learning, and to emergency remote learning in the context of COVID-19;
- How and to what extent OER fits into these models, and local and state-level supports needed for its integration and sustainability;
- Design considerations for integrating OER in online learning, including pedagogical and platform considerations;
- Curatorial practices, such as using OER curation tools and aligning curated OER to learning outcomes; and,
- Starting points and tips for colleges and faculty who want to initiate OER integration into distance education.
Tailored to faculty and campus administrators both in California and beyond, the Guide has the aim is to enable system-wide shifts to meet postsecondary institutions’ long term goals for distance learning, and faculty’s emergency plans for remote learning in response to the COVID-19 and potential future crises.
The Guide is also available as a PDF for download: https://drive.google.com/file/d/17AXs30dZeLOrGeNBQ-ISc_OJXIxE9xtB/view?usp=sharing.
