8 Types of Learning Events You Need to Have in Your Classroom

8 Types of Learning Events You Need to Have in Your Classroom | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
A good eLearning course requires the right combination of learning events. But what are these exactly?
Beth Dichter's insight:

Although this infographic is geared to eLearning courses the same types of learning events should also be found in the classroom that is face2face. 

The eight learning events discussed are:

* Imitation

* Reception

* Guidance

* Exploration

* Experimentation

* Creation

* Self-Reflection

* Debate or Animation


Does your classroom incorporate these learning events? Do you have strengths in some areas asn weaknesses in others? Do your students demonstrate strengths or weaknesses that might suggest different activities? eLearning is something that many forecast as happening in public schools over the next 3 to 5 to 10 years. Considering these eLearning events today may prepare us to be better teachers tomorrow.

eLearn or in the classroom, as we look for ways to engage with content, these events give us choices in the type of transfer we expect in a lesson. Valuable resource in my UbD journey.

The infographic is a good summary but the blog is even better as a description.
