The document describes how to create a programmed instructional material (PIM) using PowerPoint. It shares a template for a PIM that presents content and then multiple choice questions to test learner understanding. Incorrect answers link to feedback pages while correct answers link to the next question or a results page. The template guides learners through content in a self-paced way. Steps for developing a PIM are provided, such as selecting a topic, writing objectives and content, creating questions and feedback pages, and inserting these into the template. Feedback is requested to improve the template and instructions.
Making Programed Learning material
- 1. Making a Programmed Instructional Material (PIM) A lot of material is available on internet regarding programmed instructional material. But when we search for any sample of such material we are left empty handed. I would like to share the output of my initial attempt in this direction and to create a template for making programmed instructional material for my B.Ed. students. Some of them have created a marvelous programmed learning material using this template which will also be shared
- 2. I have used Power-Point presentation using a few tricks to present a set of information “Content” and then presents a few questions to the learner. The question frame is having multiple choice questions having four answers, out of which 3 are wrong answers and only one is correct. The wrong answers are linked to the “Wrong answer page” which provides feedback about the answer or a hint to answer the question correctly. A child cannot move to the next question unless he/she doesn't answer the question correctly. Whereas, a correct answer to a question leads the learner to the next question and so on. At the end the learner may be provided with a score. In this presentation I will be sharing how I developed this template and how to use it. I request you all to drop me a feedback about my work and feedback to improve it.
- 3. Flow of Frames or slides Objectives of the PIM Content Question 1 (MCQ) • Wrong Answer Page • Hint page • Correct Answer page Question 2 (MCQ) • Wrong Answer Page • Hint page • Correct Answer page Last Question • Wrong Answer Page • Hint page • Correct Answer page Result Page Selecting the wrong answer will lead to “wrong answer page”. The each “wrong answer page” will be linked to relevant “Hint Page” which will provide some sort of remedial instruction. Both the “wrong answer page” and “Hint Page” are linked to respective “Question page ”. Whereas, if the learner selects the right answer in the first go he/she will be moved to “correct answer page”. The “correct answer page” will immediately provide positive reinforcement to the learner, and will take the learner to the next question page. This transition to next page can be time delayed automatically or can be mouse click based.
- 4. A sample of such PIM is presented in following slides…
- 5. Objectives of PIM At the end of this module you will be able to- 1. recall the concept of Root System. 2. explain the characters of roots 3. interpret the functions of roots Let’s start module
- 6. Topic: The Root System The root and its branches make up the root system of a plant. A typical toot consists of primary roots, secondary roots, tertiary toots, toot caps and root hairs. The primary roots gets divided into branches which are known as secondary roots. The branches of secondary roots are called tertiary roots. The tip of each toot is protected by a root cap. Every toot has a cluster of very fine thread like root hairs for absorbing water and minerals salts from the soil. The main function of a root are fixation, absorption, transportation and prevention. Let’s answer some questions
- 7. Q1: Which part of the seed grows into roots? - Stem - Plumule - Leaves - Radicle
- 8. Oops! Wrong Answer Click Here to attempt the question again Hint!
- 9. Oops! Wrong Answer Click Here to attempt the question again Hint!
- 10. Congratulations you have selected Right Answer! Click Here to go the next question … 10
- 11. A few things which I have done and reasons I have used buttons to select an answer instead of hyper linking the text. If text is hyper linked and used the colour of the text will change when you visit the page again, therefore I have used buttons for selection a response. All the “wrong answers” are linked to same “wrong answer page” and the same hint page also. The animation in the last slide has been taken from http://giphy.com/
- 12. How to hyper link buttons 1. Insert a simple circle/oval or any other shape you like. I have used circle. 2. Format it to look like a 3D object 3. Change colour as you want 4. Select the circle not the text in the circle right click hyperlink place in this document select the slide you want to hyper link it to OK and Voila!
- 13. Developing programmed instructional material: Steps: Select any topic Prepare content analysis of the topic i.e. teaching elements Prepare behavioural objectives of the topic Write content appropriately as to provide self learning experience to the learner Prepare at least 5 MCQ with four answers each, out of which only one is correct and 3 are wrong answers
- 14. Prepare a wrong answer page, correct answer page etc. Prepare text for hint to be provided for wrong answer Insert text of question, answers and hints prepared in the template given at appropriate place in frames/ slides Ensure proper hyper link of answers, frames (slides) etc. Provide total score in last frame/ slide attained by the learner in the programmed instructional material
- 15. Use design template provided in Microsoft Power Point for modifying the template given Do not use too much variation in text size, font type, graphics in the programmed instructional material You may change colour of template as desired You are free to innovate with the text presentation and use of animation, videos etc. for instructions in the programmed instructional material
- 16. Your suggestions and observations are welcome!
