Using Instructional Design to Improve Learning Environments

Photo by Kenny Eliason Using Instructional design to improve learning environments is a concept slowly becoming a requirement in education and industry. Although instructional design only recently becoming a phrase more widely used it has been a subject of discussion and study for many years. Visionaries? In 1964, Gene Roddenberry created Star Trek based on a society that had forgone currency…

HOW HAS YOUR JOB BEEN GOING SO FAR DEVIN? I KNOW YOU SAID YOU START TRAINING ON THE ....12TH?

YES OH MY GOSH

CHLOE

CHLOE

CHLOE

IT'S BEEN

IT'S BEEN REALLY WEIRD AND FUN AND SO TIRING

Okay, here's the thing, the first day was really great! I got to meet some members of the team I'm instructed to work with! I got really sleepy after my eight hours (I'm currently training myself to not rely on naptime in the afternoons anymore lol). But yeah, I got to see and interact with some of the kids!

Currently, I'm in a training center now (good for two weeks) and then I'm back in my center to shadow my seniors and actually start working with my kids.

Today was my fourth day at the training center and let me tell you, it's like being in school. It's all notes on powerpoints, group roleplay, quizzes, oh gosh! I know it's all in preparation for the certification exam that I'm supposed to take as soon as I finish a competency assessment at my center, but it can be so mentally taxing!

I'm glad that I have a psych background since it's been helping me out, but I looked ahead into future modules and we'll be delving into territory I'm not so familiar with. Everyone there goes to different centers (I'm the only one of my kind lol), but they're all so nice and friendly!)

Side note: You're talking to the King of Kahoot :D

Won 3 kahoots over the past few days!

Anywhoozles, I'm getting my first paycheck on the first (yes, the training is paid for heheh) and I can't wait to celebrate! :D

Thank you so much for asking! I'm glad that you remembered!

#hystericfae #hystericfae ask #answered #devintrinidad #i admit #i'm a little bit nervous when it comes to my competency assessment #because it's both an evaluation of a roleplay between me and my boss #and the other half is actually working with the kids #ahhhhhhh #I really hope I come across as fun to the kids #like i'm told i'm mischievous but that could only be the case for adults #and not our little friends #let's just say it's been an overhwleming week #but we all got to start somewhere

Evaluating fictional characters I suspect are autistic by taking self-assessment tests from their POV

The funny thing is when I consciously underplay my answers because "well, they wouldn't think this applies to them" and they STILL end up in the highest category of likelihood

#okay really i think i've done this twice #it feels a little weird using a real assessment tool for fictional characters but i can't think of a better way to check my own evaluations #and i do want to check them

[rackartyg]

in therapy today i just talked about the dark urge and astarion and my therapist was elated about it. it was fantastic. “wow you’ve really been using this story and those characters to process things. that’s amazing!”

the era of being ashamed of my interests is over. it’s apparently Cool and Healthy to use fiction to cope. i wish i could tell fifteen year old me about this it would blow her mind

#she speaks #arctic plays bg3 #bad brains blogging #you’re gonna have to pry SFF from my cold dead hands because ‘this creature is not human but nonetheless a person’ is THE most #important thing ever actually #i love taking my feelings and experiences and externalising and concretising them through metaphor #my favourite thing about astarion is how he both has literal cptsd AND metaphorically through his vampirism #that fucking rules #also shoutout to another thing therapist said today: #she was originally sceptical of my potentially having autism #then she was like ‘ok you have some traits but you’re probably not diagnosable’ #then today she was like ‘you make so much sense when one thinks of you through the lense of autism’ #amen sister i’ve been right there with you #but now i’m getting my second assessment soon! which won’t change anything about me i am and will be ‘tism-y regardless #but it’s going to be interesting to see what happens #also i told her about my WISC scores and she was like ‘jesus christ tell them to evaluate you for adhd too’ so uhhh #they already screened me for that and i believe i tested negative but let’s see #the WISC score was why i was even referred for an assessment so

What’s your occupation or career, area of study, and/or any topic(s) about which you have you have a lot of expertise??

Asking for fun and also to start a collection of miscellaneous field experts who can answer the random but highly specific questions a writer has when working on a fic/novel

#it’s called NETWORKING #mine are: #research #university/institutional research administration #academia (regretful) #clinical psychology #counseling #I was a therapist for almost 2 years #psychological assessments and evaluations #neuroscience #ummm #research project/grant management #grant planning and logistics #for a US private institution so it’s not universal knowledge ofc #but it received 1 billion in research funding this year so that counts for something right?

[angelnumber27]

it’s really difficult and frustrating when your doctors don’t quite know what’s mentally or physically wrong with you so you can’t get proper treatment

#like girl can we run some tests or something?? can I take an assessment? #an evaluation?? #help

[vulpinesaint]

meds working is like. finding myself laughing at something. smiling big. crying easy cause i can feel again. anything beautiful or even vaguely sentimental sparks tears and sometimes it's such a ridiculous thing to cry at that i have to laugh again. not remembering the last time i felt really bad when i used to not remember the last time i felt really happy. saying that i'm doing alright and it's a good thing and not another way to say that i'm not doing well. things can be tough but overall i'm alright. things are alright. things are okay. driving with the windows down in late summer is fun and december's early nights are nice, actually, and maybe i just need to get out of bed and shower to feel less icky. i had a rough time today but it's not the end. happiness is not always transcendent. things are alright.

#everywhere i turn nowadays it's like. wow. the meds are working. #third month on medication and gosh haha #being treated for it and having it get better is an Insane way to finally accept that it was actually depression </3 #can't stop talking about it though cause!!!!!! !!!!!!! #didn't think they were Kicking In for a while cause i wasn't feeling Happy™️ but then someone asked how i was doing last month #and i went in to assess my mental state to offer an honest evaluation but like. i was okay. genuinely doing okay. #which. huh. #i'm like. things are fine :) #suddenly the convo i had with my dorm neighbor about contentment being a good thing and not Settling For Not Bad makes sense 😭 #who was gonna tell me that i was mentally ill. #anyway y'all have been living like this the whole time?? the world is so much more manageable #not Y'all. i know the people reading this. but the general population #valentine notes

🤝 intern woes solidarity. We had one start last week who clearly does not want to be here—doesn't give feedback on what she wants to learn from the experience, doesn't try to engage with the process or ask questions, is just around to get credit for her program. Which, if she wants to waste her time fine I guess, but she Also is straight up afraid of our clients (I work at a homeless shelter) and it's like?? Girl why are you here learning nothing and making our clients uncomfortable. Either treat this learning opportunity as valuable or make someone else babysit you

YIKES!!!!!!! YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT'S NOT EVEN GIVING NET ZERO GIRL YOU ARE MAKING IT WORSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am holding your hand.

#ask #anonymous #well if there's an... assessment? what's the thing. EVALUATION. #if there's an evaluation I hope you at least get the catharsis of taking her to task #YOU'RE REALLY GONNA ENTER A SPACE FOR FOLKS WHO ARE UNHOUSED AND MAKE IT WORSE FOR THEM???? SERIOUSLY???? FOR REAL????? #AT THIS POINT JUST LEAVE?????????

[designernishiki]

anyway. nishiki and majima are both borderline and i could do a whole case study on either of them about it. send tweet

#im pretty flexible about most hcs regarding mental disorders and such but this take is one im like pretty fucking steadfast on #and I could write. an absurd amount about it. cause psychoanalyzing the shit out of characters is literally like. what I do for a living #and I have a weird special interest in abnormal psych and the dsm-5 in my closet and a psychologist for a mother and etc #but yeah so #inquire further at your own risk because I will talk. I will talk a lot #the only issue with majima is that I can’t evaluate his childhood and family life and just. his fundamental years of development in general #which is a pretty big deal when it comes to assessing for any personality disorder #nishiki oh yeah I absolutely can. but yeah we know basically nothing about majimas fundamental years. all I can really do is reverse #engineer so to speak based on how he is as an adult and what causes a person to do the things he does / be the way he is / etc #but of course that’d all be very very loose and hypothetical. FASCINATING to think about to me but obviously would have to be taken with a #huge grain of salt and be considered very very speculative #but I can say for sure that he didn’t have a stable and perfect home life/family life growing up I think that’s pretty safe to assume #anything more detailed than that is way more speculative but. yeah. I don’t think he was just. Normal. up until he was 20 #his identity issues run way too deep for me to accept that concept #anyway I need to shut up #majima #nishiki #rambling

[disengaged]

spent an hour trying and failing to read a book & got so frustrated i wanted to cry . related: broke down & paid $600 for an ADHD assessment next week

#pegasus speaks #since im in a new province without a GP i have to do an assessment with this company thing before i can get evaluated for medication #i straight up just lied and said i don’t have an ED like. i’m so fucking desperate to get some kind of help for this shit #it’s been years of struggling to do every single task in my life or pay attention even when people are talking directly in my face #im so TIRED im MISERABLE i want to FUNCTION LIKE EVERYONE ELSE

[psqqa]

me and apollo both staring at these fucking cards like ?????

#ace attorney #the cheat is not in fact more obvious by looking at both men’s hands #i’m not a total idiot #the first thing i did was check the cards for obvious discrepancies #but like we just spent five minutes arguing a question of basic addition #did you want me to be running some kind of statistical evaluation of all four aces being on the table or something? #if there’s something else you want me to be seeing here #you’re going to have to spoonfeed me some more poker rules first #on which note #thank you kristoph gavin for starting off with ‘so you know the terms ‘a pair’ and ‘three of a kind’?’ #you have correctly assessed my level of poker comprehension here
