Baggio: less is more when it comes to images. A powerful image will stick in a person's memory while a slide full of small print text will cause most people to tune out.
Clark 3-6:
Ch. 3 Procedures
3 column chart for if/when means that people can be prepared for different scenarios
Ch. 4 Abstract and Concrete Concepts
must provide examples and non examples
ex: Types of Dogs-golden retriever, pit bull, boxer, poodle, dachshund, etc,...
Non examples: coyote, wolf
Analogy: a dog is a domestic animal. A wolf is like a wild dog much like the Australian dingo
Ch. 5 Facts
Facts are just that and are inefficient forms of information because of their remembrance level.
Use a mnemonic to help people out:
K.I.S.S.
Keep It Simple Sunshine
Ch. 6 Processes
Narratives for how something works. Gives someone a glance at the bigger picture or system.
Baggio, Clark, and Dervin
Without taking a learning test I can already say that I need to see information, hear it, and I need to interact with it in someway to understand it. Thinking back to taking dance as a child I remember intensely watching my teacher and moving at the same time so I could get the parts down. Now as an adult and using things like Google Maps to drive I still glance at the screen and listen to the directions to I can make it to my destination.
From the Dervin reading we know when it comes down to it we're all trying to optimize the transfer of information and assess whether our information is being synthesized by the receiver. Best way to transfer information is by some sort of graphic with succinct or basic images based on the Baggio reading. What we're trying to do is jog a memory or past experience of the user so that they can file it away in their brains in case they need it later. Any information deemed unnecessary is scrapped. While technology is really helpful to transfer information we know from the Clark reading that using best teaching practices are most impactful on student learning.
What I need to use in the classroom is more visuals. I have terrible handwriting and zero patience for making the perfect pinterest worthy anchor chart. I think padlet is a really neat tool because students can add to the page themselves with text or graphics and it's neatly typed for the students to access at anytime through their chromebooks. Students will be able to see information we've gone over as a class and access it during their individual work time. As a teacher I can go in an edit or organize information added to the padlet so that students can easily take from it.
