Group E talking points


Valerie Wood sent me an email with several good talking points we can go over as our course progresses The questions below are responses from our group's individual answers:
How about taking Jackie and Patrick's comments as starting points? Here are the questions they had put up:
* Would you say that all good learning experiences should be challenging?
* As instructional designers, how or should we integrate emotions into our instruction?
* Do you think feeling uncomfortable, fearful and/or out-of-control areimportant elements in a powerful learning experience? Is that something an instructional designer should attempt to integrate into the instruction?
* How do you think the "preparation and persistence" you refined during your three years at Great Lakes may transfer to developing online instruction?
* What do you think the role of memorization is in learning? Are there some fields, like law, where memorization is required? I wonder how many different memorization strategies we can list? I think these are interesting questions that we could explore further based on our experiences.

Thanks Valerie!!
