Assignments
In preparation for completion of design document number two, work with your instructional design team to identify and appropriately sequence instructional strategies.  Be sure to indicate what rationale you used to conduct your sequencing, and work carefully to ensure that each instructional strategy directly relates to the instructional objective it originates from. You will include your instructional strategies and sequencing with the methods you identify in next weeks unit in the form of design document two.

Discussion
Team Chat to work on instructional sequencing: at a time during the week convenient for all members. And class chat to overview key concepts for mid-term quiz.  (Transcripts)
