3+Concept+Map+of+Learning+Theories

=Concept Map of Learning Theories= This is an assignment where the students use the Roblyer book and the Internet to gather their information to create the concept map.

Fowler--I would like to include in the directions that they CANNOT use Wikipedia as a source for this assignment. I also want to do a Tegrity video on using bubbl.us since Screenjelly has apparently disappeared. I added Jennifer's find of the tutorial. I will leave the Tegrity videos up to the individual instructors. J. Ray--I found this tutorial http://www.schooltube.com/video/cfb3cb548ea4853c511a/BubblUs-tutorial It looked pretty good if you don't want to redo something, especially since the Tegrity videos don't transfer from course to course.

Concept Map of Learning Theories > Using this free concept mapping software, create a concept map of the learning theories discussed in Chapter 2. You should include: i. 1 point—name of theory ii. 1 point—person(s) associated with theory iii. 3 points—instructional activity that demonstrates the theory described that DOES NOT use technology iv. 5 points—technology activity that demonstrates the theory described
 * 1) Read Chapter 2 Theory and Practice: Foundations for Effective Technology Integration in //Integrating Educational Technology into Teaching//.
 * 2) Go to Bubbl.us []and create a user account. A tutorial of how to use Bubbl.us is available here- []
 * 1) Behaviorist Theory
 * 2) Information-Processing Theory
 * 3) Cognitive-Behavioral Theory
 * 4) Systems Theory
 * 5) Social Activism Theory
 * 6) Scaffolding Theory
 * 7) Child Development Theory
 * 8) Discovery Learning Theory
 * 9) Multiple Intelligences Theory
 * 10) For each theory, you should include the name of the theory, information about the person associated with it, examples of instruction using this theory, and examples of a technology application using this theory.
 * 11) After you have completed your concept map, you should save it as a JPEG and submit it through Blackboard Assignments. You should be sure that you save the WHOLE MAP in JPEG format by centering it and then saving as a JPEG. Please contact your professor if you have trouble with this.
 * 12) Grading Checklist
 * 13) Uses Bubbl.us or other online software to create concept map 10 points
 * 14) Includes all 9 theories with person(s) associated with them, instructional activity, and technology activity
 * 15) Breakdown of 10 Points per theory

Fowler--Example of an instructional activity would be using basal readers to teach phonics to first grade students. Example of a technology activity would be to have the first grade students use the computer to record their voices sounding out words and then listening to them.

J. Ray--I had several questions about this activity this time, particularly what and "instructional activity" and a "technology activity" were. Do you think we should have a more detailed rubric on this one? M. Hocutt - I agree with Jennifer, we probably need a more detailed rubric and an explanation of instructional and technology activities. Fowler--Any suggestions for a more detailed rubric? Do you envision a rubric with 4 levels for each theory instead of the 10 point break down? I can also add web sites they can use for getting more information about each of the theories.
