Final Examination Semester 1/2013
Instruction: Please try your best in answering questions within the time allowed.
Question 1 and 2 : Choose One of the two questions only. Please write a discussion paper based
on the article and question you chose. The length of the discussion is between 1 and 11/2 page
long.
1. According to the article by Richard E. Clark and Thomas R. Ramage, the research that compare
different types of media did not show any learning differences between the media that are being
compared. (Details can be read in the provided abstract and conclusion for each paper.) In your
opinion, how does the information provided in the abstract/introduction and the conclusion of
these two research articles would impact your choices of choosing technology or media to use in
education settings (Classroom or others)? (30 Points)
2. Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is becoming a new trend of technology integration into education.
According to the article titled BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and the Classroom, students using
their devices during class can disrupts learning, while there are potential of using the devices to further
engage students into learning. Different points of views happen for any new technology trend. In your
opinion, please discuss the following question. (Note: the discussion can be based on any education
settings such as: classroom, online-learning, training, or others. Please describe the environment that
you will base your discussion on as well.) (30 Points)
-
How does the BYOD impact learning? (Both positively and negatively)
Question 3 and 4 : Please answer both (3 & 4) questions. The length of the answer should be
between to 1 page for each question.
3. Virtual communities, social networks, and other online social interactions are becoming normal
activity when people are online. (15 Points)
a. How do you think the social activity would promote learning?
b. Are there negative effects towards usage of social network for the purpose of learning?
Please, express your thoughts towards this notion.
4. An instructor is planning to use a learning object to be part of the English course for students. There are
2 learning objects that the instructor found. Both provide the same content that the instructor wants to
use. However, the learning objects need to be purchased and the instructor only have a budget for only
one learning object. The instructor asked you to help evaluate each of the learning objects.You
evaluated with 5 of your friends using the LOEM table for evaluation. The results show the following
average score for each of the learning objects. (15 Points)

The author wishes to acknowedge the substantive advice of Gavriel Salomon, William
Winn, and anonymous reviewers without making them responsible for errors.
to avoid investing the effort required by the more structured approaches to achieve
the same disappointing results. These more unstructured approaches offer relative
anonymity and the chance to invest less effort for the less able student who, on the
other hand, actually needs the greater structure of the methods they like less. While
medium and method are not the same experience, the methods conveyed by the
media in studies such as these probably account for different levels of achievement
while subject attributions about media influence their preferences.
Conclusions
One might reasonably wonder why media are still advocated for their ability to
increase learning when research clearly indicates that such benefits are not forthcoming. Of course such conclusions are disseminated slowly and must compete
with the advertising budgets of the multimillion dollar industry which has a vested
interest in selling these machines for instruction. In many ways the problem is
analogous to one that occurs in the pharmaceutical industry. There we find
arguments concerning the relative effectiveness of different media (tablets, capsules,
liquid suspensions) and different brand names carrying the same generic drug to
users.
An equal contributor to this disparity between research and practice is the high
expectation we have for technology of all kinds. Other machine-based technologies
similar to the newer electronic media have revolutionized industry and we have
had understandable hopes that they would also benefit instruction. And, there is
the fact that many educators and researchers are reserved about the effectiveness
of our system of formal education. As environments for learning, media seem to
offer alternative and more effective features than those available from the conventional teacher in the conventional classroom. Tobias (1982) for example, has
provided evidence that we can help overcome student anxiety by allowing anxious
students the chance to replay a recording of a lesson. This quality of "reviewability"
is commonly thought to distinguish some of the newer media from the conventional
teacher's lecture. It is important to note however, that teachers are entirely capable
of reviewing material for anxious students (and probably do so often). It is what
the teacher does-the teaching-that influences learning. Most of the methods
carried by newer media can also be carried or performed by teachers. Dixon and
Judd (1977), for example, compared teacher and computer use of "branching"
rules in instruction and found no differences in student achievement attributable
to these two "media."
The point is made, therefore, that all current reviews of media comparison studies
suggest that we will not find learning differences that can be unambiguously
attributed to any medium of instruction. It seems that existing research is vulnerable
to rival hypotheses concerning the uncontrolled effects of instructional method and
novelty.
More recent evidence questions the evidence for the media-based attempts to
determine the components of effective instructional methods. These symbol system
or media attribute theories seem to be useful for instructional design but of limited
utility in explicating the necessary conditions that must be met by effective methods.
Future research should therefore focus on necessary characteristics of instructional
methods and other variables (task, learner aptitude, and attributions), which are
more fruitful sources for understanding achievement increases. Recent studies
dealing with learner attributions and beliefs about the instructional and entertainment qualities of different media seem particularly attractive as research directions.
There are no media variables in attribution research, however. Independent variables are concerned with learner beliefs, and outcome measures are typically some
measure of learner persistence at a task. It seems reasonable to recommend,
therefore, that researchers refrain from producing additional studies exploring the
relationship between media and learning unless a novel theory is suggested.

Web based applications are perfect to use (such as Google Docs) for collaboration during a class or visualization
applications like Google Maps or Earth to help emphasize a topic in your lecture. Most classroom have wireless
access and some web applications like Google Docs can work offline. Students can view maps and add notes
inside a web published document right on their own devices.
If BYOD is implemented in the correct way and with a directed purpose in the classroom, it can provide the stu
dents with a more engaging and memorable experience during a lecture.
