ELM 500 How Learning Occurs Full Course
ELM 500 Topic 1: Discussion Question 1
After watching the
“How People Learn: Introduction to Learning Theory”video, reflect on and
discuss the following: How do you, personally, learn? What have other teachers
done to assist you in that learning? Utilize and reference the four areas that
influence learning mentioned in the video.
ELM 500 Topic 1: Discussion Question 2
Select one of the
theorists in Chapter 1 of Psychology of Learning for Instruction, such as Pavlov or Gestalt, and summarize their
contribution to learning theory. How does this apply to your own ideas about
teaching and learning?
ELM 500 Week 1 Assignment Reflection of How People Learn
Details:
Watch the video “How
People Learn: Introduction to Learning Theory,” which details how teaching has
been described in many ways and presents similes comparing teachers as actors,
as story tellers and as coaches. Many more similes can be found in your
readings.
In a 500-750-word
paper, describe the simile that captures your own ideas about teaching and how
it reflects one or more of the learning theories from this week’s reading. The
simile may be one you read about or one you create. What does your simile
suggest about your thinking on how students learn? Further, what does your
simile suggest about the role of a teacher in assisting students’ learning?

educational scenario in which you or someone you know had difficulty achieving
the set goals or outcomes. Consider the experience in reference to behavior
modification.

ELM 500 Week 2 Assignment Deconstructing Assessment Items
Details:
Review “Sample Arizona
AIMS Exam Questions.” This contains seven assessment items for fourth-graders
from the standardized Arizona AIMS exam. Complete this assignment in three
parts:
1.
Complete a “Table of
Specifications” using the table format provided. Begin by analyzing each of the
seven assessment items. For each item, create a learning objective aligned to
what the assessment item is measuring. Write these learning objectives in the first
column under “Learning Objectives.” Then, for each assessment item, classify
the item, indicating its type (e.g., multiple choice, essay) under the level of
knowledge/skill the student is being asked to display in the item.
2.
Review each assessment
item for cultural bias (e.g., ethnic, gender, or socioeconomic bias). Write a
short description of your review beneath your Table of Specifications.
3.
Lastly, create new
assessment items for each of the original seven assessment items using a
different Depth of Knowledge (DOK) Level than what was originally required. Be
sure your new assessment item aligns to the learning objective you wrote, or,
if you prefer, re-write the learning objective slightly to more accurately
reflect your new assessment. Include the learning objectives, the new
assessment items, and their Depth of Knowledge (DOK) Level classification
beneath the statement of bias.
APA format is not
required, but solid academic writing is expected.
