Week 8

After we submit the assignment 1, we must start the assignment 2. The title assignment 2 is develop digital instructional content for an online course. This is a project meant for a group of 3 – 4 students. In this project, we are to propose an online course and develop the digital instructional contents (instructional/ training materials) for the training course that is to be delivered to meet the needs of a specific target audience. It can be an online short course, MOOC or any particular programme’s course. We should come out with the course content/ syllabus and its supporting instructional/ training materials such presentations slides, video tutorial, application, or interactive eBook, etc. that can be uploaded to a learning platform. Our project should be planned and developed based on the theories, principles and concepts of instructional design and UX and psychology of interaction learned. Compose our product in such a manner that it will be easily used and upload to any learning platform. Limit our focus to 3 - 4 important topics of a course. We do not need to develop the digital instructional contents / materials for the entire course. Instead, focus on a specific set of topics and instructional materials to be used for those topics.

The weightage of this group project is 50% of the overall marks for the course. There are two parts

in this group project:

Part 1: Select a Course and Submit a Report

Submit a report on what course we proposed, how we will use the relevant theories, concepts and models related to instructional design and UX and psychology of interaction to design and develop the course. We should also include information about our course design and the use of an appropriate learning platform for our course.

Part 2: Design & Develop the Actual Instructional Content / Materials

Based on our planning and analysis, we are required to design and develop the actual digital instructional content / materials for the project.
