Needs Assessment
1. What is the learning problem?
– ESL Learners are faced with the problem in establishing Prepositions of Place to
subject location relevant to object.
2. What is currently available?
– Currently, there is no adequate exercise available to assist in understanding how
prepositions are used, and what each stand for.
3. What should be available?
– Training should be available to help learners in practice in both understanding and
determining correct use of prepositions when faced with location of subject.
4. Explain the gap analysis between what is available and what should be
available.
– Although ESL Learners come with some exposure to prepositional usage, they are
unable to give examples in statement that help to show their understanding.
5. What is the recommended solution for filling the gap?
– The design of an interactive eLearning Training Module that will assist ESL Learners in
practice of comprehending Prepositions of Place.

Instructional Goal
• What should the learner be able to do after
successful completion this tutorial?
– ESL Learners should be able to have a level of
understanding more apparent than previously of
Prepositions of Place, both in definition and in
context to the relationship of the subject.

Performance Based Objectives (PBOs)
• Use the ABCD Model for creating objectives
– Who is the Audience?
• The audience is comprised of ESL Learners who have a lack of proficiency with
Prepositions of Place
– What is the expected Behavior?
• After completion of the tutorial (and with successful passing rate of the Quiz),
learners should be able to identify subject object relations with the use of the
correct preposition.
– What Conditions will the learning take place under?
• The presentation will be delivered via an online format. Students will have the
opportunity to navigate throughout the tutorial in order to familiarize
themselves with the materials presented. At the end of the tutorial, a quiz will
be presented to them to test their level of understanding in the subject area.
– What is the Degree of accomplishment?
• Students will need to receive an 80% accuracy or higher in scoring as a result
of the Quiz in order to pass the eLearning tutorial.

Summative Assessment
& Learning Outcomes
• As students navigate through the tutorial, they will be given an
opportunity to test their level of understanding through practice and
exercise when being presented on new information. This format of
formative assessment will help to train them in preparation for the Quiz at
the end. Students should be able to learn how the quiz is structured (as
well as how to answer quiz questions) before finishing the eLearning
tutorial. Sample Quiz questions will be modeled along the way.
• By the time the learner begins the actual graded quiz, these should be
proficient enough to participate in the procedure with an ease of access.
• Should any concerns arise through the learning process, assistance will be
available upon request.
• The results of the quiz will be used to measure learner attainment levels.

Introduction to Tutorial
• Prepositions of Place: Understanding Location
– In this presentation, students should be able to:
• Understand Prepositions of Location
• Acknowledge relationship between subject and object
• Identify the preposition in a statement.
• Select correct examples of prepositions in usage through
formative assessment
• Make relation between situational examples and the proper
preposition for usage
• Complete summative interactive quiz to demonstrate 100%
accuracy


UNDERSTANDING LOCATION

What is a Preposition?
• A Preposition links nouns,
pronouns and phrases to object
other words in a sentence.

• The word or phrase that the
preposition introduces is
called the object of the
preposition.
Subject

Location, Location
• We use Prepositions in everyday
occurrences to help in locating or
identifying the subject in relation
to the object.

• Here, we see the man is on the
box. Therefor, the preposition we
use to identify the location of the
subject is on.

An Example in Use
• If we were to use the preposition in a
statement, we would do so by stating
that:
“The man is on the box”.

• Note: In making a true statement,
we must remember to use the
subject-verb agreement first,
followed by the preposition, before
describing the rest.

Formula:
Subject+ Verb + Preposition + the rest.

Another Example in Use
• Here is another example. In this
picture, we see that the man has
moved. He is now located beside
the box.

• Therefor, the preposition we
would use to describe the subject
in relation to his location of the
object is beside.

Another Example in Use

• Our statement would read:

The man is beside the box.

PRACTICE QUIZ

Instructions (Practice Quiz)
• On the next slide, you will be presented with an image similar
to what we have seen throughout this tutorial. Just as in a
Multiple Choice format, you will be asked to make the correct
selection from a list of options in answering the question
correctly.
• Do not fret! This is not the actual quiz (yet), and is only for
practice to help in better understanding prepositions of place
and how to correctly identify them in usage.
• If you fail to answer the question correctly, you will be
promoted to select again.
• Once you have answered correctly, you can then move on.
• You may click “Next” to continue.

PROPERTIES
On passing, 'Finish' button: Goes to Next Slide
On failing, 'Finish' button: Goes to Next Slide
Allow user to leave quiz: At any time
User may view slides after quiz: At any time
User may attempt quiz: Unlimited times

Context
• In Practice Question 3, we noted that
the context had changed in the
question, slightly increasing the level The box is behind the man.
of difficulty in answering correctly
the first time.
• Note that in any statement, the
preposition always follows after the
subject, regardless if whether or not
the subject of the statement is the
object being referred to.
• Here, the box became the subject,
and not the man, therefor altering
our true statement to instead read
as:
– The box is behind the man.

• Note that to the right, in both
statements, the subject is marked in
bold. The man is in front of the box.

Intermission

Now that we’ve covered the basics,
it’s time to test your knowledge!

Instructions (Quiz)
Before you begin, you will be able to move forward and backward
throughout the quiz as you read each question and make your
selection. When you are finished, you will be prompted to submit
your selections for grading. The results of your answers will be
given once submitted.

This quiz has no time limit.

Please note:
If you score below the adequate amount needed in order to pass,
you will be allowed to retake the quiz.

Click on “Next” to continue.

Summary
• This completes the online tutorial on
Prepositions of Place: Understanding Location
• As you continue with learning and practicing the
understandings of what prepositions are and how
they are used, you will find that there are many more
to use in referring to the location of a subject.
• Do not worry about making mistakes along the way.
• Mistakes are a part of the learning experience.
