Overview My aim:
– to demonstrate how to create learning materials
My objectives:– supply a brief background to learning– give you a task to do
Your learning outcomes:– demonstrate what makes learning effective– test success of the materials you created

Materials in context
Effective planning Resources Institutional support Who are the
learners? Learning materials
Communication Evaluation Measuring
performance Quality assurance

Learning materials
Delivery options– print– voice, video, cd-rom, audio– computer applications
• e-mail and bulletin boards• web-based teaching• home-page facilities

Which is best?
before selecting a delivery system focus on instructional outcomes, not
technology of delivery– needs of learners– requirements of content– constraints faced by teacher
typically you will end up with a mix of media each serving a specific purpose

Adapting existing materials
By adding– user-friendly objectives and outcomes– responses to questions/tasks/activities– self assessment tasks– written study skills help– assessment criteria– summaries/reviews/checklists– feedback questionnaires/evaluation

Learner centred materials design
Successful learning programmes allow for: wanting
doing
feedback
digesting
![Page 8: Distance education: Creating learning materials Caroline Williams Liverpool University Centre for Archive Studies (LUCAS)](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072008/56649d885503460f94a6ca39/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Creating the ‘want’: motivation By first attracting, then stimulating to start and
continue, and encouraging to persist by:– attractive title– good design– aims, objectives and outcomes they want
to achieve– address them personally: you will be able...– a compelling introduction (written last)– demonstrating they can already do it
![Page 9: Distance education: Creating learning materials Caroline Williams Liverpool University Centre for Archive Studies (LUCAS)](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072008/56649d885503460f94a6ca39/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Enabling learning by doing learning by having a go as soon as possible and getting it right (and wrong) by being well briefed for the task tasks should involve more than just recalling students can decide, prioritise, attack,
summarize, defend, propose, analyse, evaluate etc
self assessment activities, test your learning with answers or other feedback
![Page 10: Distance education: Creating learning materials Caroline Williams Liverpool University Centre for Archive Studies (LUCAS)](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072008/56649d885503460f94a6ca39/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Learning from feedback
which makes them feel good whether right or wrong more than mere answers your responses are the most important
part of your open learning materials integral not last minute
![Page 11: Distance education: Creating learning materials Caroline Williams Liverpool University Centre for Archive Studies (LUCAS)](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072008/56649d885503460f94a6ca39/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Digesting
making sense of the learning experience
sorting out what is important from what has been learned
putting things into perspective taking ownership designers must factor these four in
![Page 12: Distance education: Creating learning materials Caroline Williams Liverpool University Centre for Archive Studies (LUCAS)](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072008/56649d885503460f94a6ca39/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Workshop Aim: to create three or four pages of material
which enable the undergraduate learner to define the attributes of a record.
You are supplied with:– definitions of a record from ICA, AS4390,
ISO 15489– UK PRO and ICA definitions of context,
context and structure– a doctor’s prescription, medicine packaging– sample of existing material

Tasks Create an ‘interesting’ title Define your aim Define student’s learning outcomes A compelling introduction Include three or four activities. The task and
its response should be clearly indicated on the page
Provide responses which will lead on Test it out on another group
