(F) L3: Instructional Media Flashcards
Who was the educational psychologist who stated that “we get information from our senses; the more our senses perceive, the more we learn”?
Richard E. Mayer
Refers to all materials and physical means an instructor uses to implement instruction and facilitate students’ achievement of objectives
Instructional Media
Instructional media helps transform abstract concepts into _______ ones
Concrete
T or F: Instructional media allows easy and repeated reproduction of an event or procedure
True
Instructional media provides what kind of access to a process or technique?
Visual
T or F: Instructional media promotes an illusion of a simulation
F (illusion of reality)
This refers to the following:
- are printed materials aka pamphlets
- ensures all learners have access to the same information
- it communicated facts, figures, and concepts
- given before or after a class session
Handouts
When using a whiteboard, what portion of the board is ideal to only write on?
Upper 2/3 (people cannot see the lower 1/3 of the board)
This refers to the following:
- an interactive board
- a large display that connects to a computer and projector
- a touch-sensitive screen
- allows presentation of information from the board rather than the laptop
Electronic Whiteboard
Instructional media provides a common framework of experience to a _______ number of learners
Large
Types of Instructional Media:
→ requires projection and electricity
→ allows students to view the same material at the same time
→ offers other perspectives on the material; can be used on assessment
Projected Media
Overhead projectors, PPTs, photos, slide tapes, and filmstrips are examples of what type of media?
Projected
This projected media:
- has effective use of color
- shows transparent and opaque objects which are enlarged
- needs constant electrical supply (spare bulbs and fuses)
- should not be moved after use (hot filaments are easily broken)
- needs good maintenance and service; hard to update slides (reprinting)
Overhead Projectors
In using transparent film in overhead projectors, there should be no more than how many words per line?
6
In using transparent film in overhead projectors, each letter must be how many inches high?
1/4 inch high
T or F: You can make transparency papers from a typed page
False
This refers to the following:
- a series of large pieces of paper attached at the top
- presents information by turning one page at a time
Flipchart
This refers to the following:
- board-shaped material used with paper or other materials affixed to it
- it can stand on its own
- generally used by researchers
Display board/Poster board
A type of board where you can post pictures or other important information
Cloth Board
A type of board that is ideal for preschoolers and elementary students
Magnetic Board
This projected media:
- produces better images and illustrations
- effective in transferring information
- easy to edit/update presentations
- irrelevant information in slides are predominant (summarize the information)
- there is less student-teacher interaction (depends on the teacher)
- may be too fast/too slow in presenting the slide
Powerpoint presentations
This projected media:
- captures and records reality
- these tell a story
- makes “invisible things” visible
- pictures cannot replace reality
- does not capture movement
Photos, slide tapes, and filmstrips
T or F: Photos are exclusively projected
F (photos are both projected and non-projected)
Types of Instructional Media:
→ does not require the process of projection before operation can take place
→ used to: illustrate concepts, enhance direct instruction, and encourage students to look at data in diverse ways
Non-projected media
This non-projected media:
- easy to carry and use
- easy to generate, produce, modify, and update
- cheap especially if media are black and white
- familiar to students
- high familiarization may be ignored due to looking like high school materials
- may be difficult to teach skills or convey emotions and feelings
- are difficult to update if the printed media is bound as a book
Photos, diagrams, hand outs, flip charts, and posters
This non-projected media:
- readily available, low cost, and ease of maintenance
- good for mathematical problems, spelling, and outlining materials
- information written is temporary
- may not be visible to large groups
- poor handwriting is a big factor
