The way the U.S. judicial system works, a defendant is first found to be innocent or guilty. The punishment sentence is determined only after a defendant has been found guilty. It might seem that this is a relatively minor procedural issue. Yet, the order of this decision-making can mean the difference between life and death, or even between conviction and acquittal.

Seemingly small choices, such as the order of decision-making, can have major consequences. For example, making decisions about punishment after a guilty verdict has been reached rather than before guilt has been established impacts conviction and acquittal rates. A decision to convict can literally be a life or death decision in countries that practice capital punishment.

While solitary negative reactions or unjustified suggestions for change have the potential to dissipate discourse rather than build it, the pattern analysis shows that the anonymous condition seemed to provide a safe explorative space for learners to try out more reasons for their multiple solutions. Teachers will rarely give anonymous feedback, but the experience of giving anonymous feedback may open a social space where learners can try out the reasons for their suggestions.

It is clear that "solitary negative reactions or unjustified suggestions for change have the potential to dissipate discourse" (Howard, Barrett, & Frick, 2010, p. 103). However, anonymity may give learners a context in which they can try providing solutions that are more thoroughly supported by an accompanying rational (Howard, Barrett, & Frick, 2010). Clearly, the positive and negative consequences that anonymity has on peer feedback must be considered.

There is a design methodology called rapid prototyping, which has been used successfully in software engineering. Given similarities between software design and instructional design, we argue that rapid prototyping is a viable method for instructional design, especially for computer-based instruction.

Participant motivation to engage in these activities can also be enhanced by providing students with an opportunity to help generate the solutions to tactical problems that exist within net/wall games and have input into game creation. The principles provide a framework of tactical solutions that range from simple to complex (i.e., tactical complexity) and promote understanding of these solutions through creating games that exaggerate their importance and relevance in game settings.

The principles that underlie most games and the best tactics for use in the game are often seen as things that players should accept/learn from game authorities/experts. However, in educational settings, if students are involved in coming up with their own tactical problem solutions and have a say in game rules, their desire to engage in the game may be increased (Mandigo & Anderson, 2003).

The selected memories, nevertheless, both from her childhood and from Sally's do coalesce, or at least indicate a very clear thematic focus: primarily death, and, to a smaller extent, writing, creation, the power of words-two aspects where this book originates in: the trauma of death as a source of writing--and, as a result, as a means of creating one's self, the autobiographical subject, or the subject of this autobiography.

The carefully chosen memories of youth and the memories from Sally's childhood do merge and also point to death and writing as truly important themes in the book. According to Séllei (2009), the impact of death on an individual may serve "as a source of writing--and, as a result, as a means of creating one's self, the autobiographical subject, or the subject of this autobiography" (p. 175).

The patterns which control a portion of the world, are themselves fairly simple. But when they interact, they create slightly different overall configurations at every place. This happens because no two places on earth are perfectly alike in their conditions. And each small difference, itself contributes to the difference in conditions which the other patterns face.
References:
Alexander, C. (1979). The timeless way of building (Vol. 1). New York, NY: Oxford University Press USA.
Alexander connects simple patterns to the apparent complexity that seems to surround us. The fact that no two places on earth are perfectly alike means that when simple patterns interact they create slightly different overall configurations at every place. This is analogous to the way that the result of math equation can be changed using different variables.

My position as teacher/designer and a new media opportunity (video annotations) initiated the re-design. I created the YouTube videos because I (1) believed in shared teacher observation discussions and (2) I could. I also brought to the situation an interest in online discussions. I had planned the discussion to take place on top of the video via annotations because I was curious about how people use new media to communicate.

Howard (2011) says that his position as teacher/designer and a new media opportunity (video annotations) initiated the re-design. He created the YouTube videos because he believed in shared teacher observation discussions. If YouTube was purely a tool used in education, would it have received as much attention and investment in advancing its functionality?

The philosophical position known as constructivism views knowledge as a human construction. The various perspectives within constructivism are based on the premise that knowledge is not part of an objective, external reality that is separate from the individual. Instead, human knowledge, whether the bodies of content in public disciplines (such as mathematics or sociology) or knowledge of the individual learner, is a human construction.

People have asked me about my philosophy of teaching and learning. I would associate myself with the philosophical stance called constructivism that sees knowledge as something constructed by people. Constructivism is founded on the idea that knowledge and truth does not come from an external reality that is objective and that exists apart from a person. I tried explaining constructivism to my brother and he thought the idea was crazy.

In the 1986 soccer World Cup final, the Argentine star Diego Maradona did not score a goal but his passes through a ring of West German defenders led to two Argentine goals. The value of a star cannot be assessed only by looking at his scoring performance; his contributions to his teammates' performance is crucial, and assist statistics help measure this contribution.

Trying to decide who is the best hockey player currently playing is not easy. The measure of a star cannot be assessed only by looking at his scoring performance. Other contributions, both on and off the ice, have to be factored in. Some contributions, such as assists, are easy to measure and others, like leadership ability, are difficult.

Instructional designers typically employ models to guide their day-to-day work. Due to the increased practice of the systematic design of instruction in a growing number of settings, available models become more and more proliferated, focusing on particular types and contexts of learning, particular groups of learners or designers, or particular instructional units (either whole curricula or individual modules or lessons). The main goal of any instructional design process is to construct a learning environment in order to provide learners with the conditions that support desired learning processes.

"The main goal of any instructional design process is to construct a learning environment in order to provide learners with the conditions that support desired learning processes" (van Merriënboer, 1997, p. 2). Process models proliferate because more and more designers generate models that focus on specific contexts, learners, or even units of instruction, according to van Merriënboer (1997).
