3 Proposal Proposed Instructional Interface The Water Cycle learning module is a multi-media learning solution that incorporates NCSCOS objectives into a fun learning environment. Learners will experience the water cycle through animated graphics, sound, video, and interactivity. As a self-paced module, Water Cycle learning module enables learners to select the direction of their inquiry as well as the pace. Formative and formal assessment tests learners against North Carolina state standards. Target Audience and Setting The target audience for this lesson is 5th grade science students in a district in North Carolina. Students will be using the instructional module in the schools learning lab. Each middle school in the district has at least one learning lab comprised of 30 IBM computers that are equipped with Windows XP. The Water Cycle learning module is developed as standalone module in Flash, which makes this resource portable and flexible for distribution by the technology facilitator. As a standalone module, it can also be incorporated into a learning management system for seamless integration into lesson plans. Technical Requirements Flash Player Windows Internet Explorer XP (Windows 7 is preferred) or Mozilla Firefox 3.6 Speakers (head set) Keyboard and mouse Learning Objectives The learning objectives of the Water Cycle learning module directly align with Competency Goal 3, Objective 3.01 from the 5th Grade North Carolina Standard Course of Study (NCSCOS), which is published on the NC public schools Web site (North Carolina Standard Couse of Study Grade 5, 2004). Test items, where applicable, are referenced from past End of Grade (EOG) and other standardized tests publically available. Competency Goal 3: The learner will conduct investigations and use appropriate technology to build an understanding of weather and climate. North Carolina State Standard Objective (North Carolina Standard Course of Study): 3.01 Investigate the water cycle including the processes of: Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation, Run-off Page 1

4 Table 1. Learning Objectives # Objective Test Item 1 (Terminal Objective, Defined Concept) Given a diagram of the water cycle, the learner will describe each process involved in the water cycle and explain its function by matching the correct description with the component. 2 (Verbal) Given a diagram that represents the water cycle, the learner will be able to describe the evaporation component of the water cycle by selecting the correct description from a list. 3 (Verbal) Given a diagram that represents the water cycle, the learner will be able to describe how condensation affects and contributes to the water cycle by filing in the blank. 4 (Verbal) Given a diagram that represents the water cycle, the learner will be able to describe precipitation affects and contributes to the water cycle by selecting the correct description from a list. 5 (Verbal) Given a diagram that represents the water cycle, the learner will be able to describe the run-off affects and contributes to the water cycle by correctly identifying a statement about run-off as true or false. Learner is presented a diagram of the water cycle and a list of descriptions. Match the description with the component of the water cycle. (Technology permitting) Learner is presented a diagram of the water cycle with text boxes at each component of the cycle. Explain the water cycle. During evaporation, which change best describes what happens to water? A) A gas changes to a liquid. B) A gas changes to a solid. C) A liquid changes to a gas. D) A liquid changes to a solid. (North Carolina Test of Science) occurs when water vapor in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds. Which substance is a form of precipitation? A) dew B) frost C) fog D) hail (5th Grade Science EOG Practice 2) Run-off is the process by which water vapor cools off and changes into water droplets. True False Page 2

5 Content Outline Table 2. Content Outline Purpose Title Page Overview of Module Gain attention Stimulate Recall Inform learners of objectives Present the content Assess performance Enhance retention and transfer to the job Next Steps Outline Welcome (Splash screen) Purpose of the Module Navigation Tips How to use this Module Introduce the topic by directing the learner s attention toward water. All living things need water to survive The earth s water is millions of years old Stimulate recall of prerequisite knowledge: Solid Liquid Gas Investigate the water cycle including the processes of: Evaporation Condensation Precipitation Run-off Present building blocks of water cycle: Objective 2 Evaporation Objective 3 Precipitation Objective 4 Condensation Objective 5 Run-off Present concept of water cycle. Objective 1 Assessment The learner will summarize the water cycle including such concepts as evaporation, condensation, run off and precipitation by labeling the diagram correctly. Apply Knowledge Students will be asked to describe the water cycle in their own words Topics for classroom discussion and further inquiry Page 3

6 Instructional Flow The instructional flow is based on Gagne s Nine Events of Instruction, which uses prior knowledge to introduce and teach new material. The Nine Events also focus on gaining attention on the outset to bring the learners attention toward the subject matter. Welcome The Welcome slide is the splash screen that provides the title of the module and graphic scene of the water cycle. To proceed, the user must click a button to start the module. This provides both the learner and teacher control over when to start the module. Introduce Module and Objectives The introduction explains the purpose of the tutorial, informs the learner of the learning objects, and provides instructions for navigation. Gain Attention This important step in the instructional flow gains the attention of the learners by encouraging them to think about where water comes from. Animation and audio is used during this phase to give the learner a sense of what the module will be like. Stimulate Recall Target learners likely have some knowledge of the components of the water cycle in prerequisite knowledge of water, solid, and gas. To stimulate recall of what the learners already know, the following questions are presented: 1. What happens to water in the freezer? 2. What happens to ice if you leave it out of the freezer? 3. What would happen if you left a glass of water outside in the sun? A slide for each question lets learners investigate the three different forms of water: liquid, solid or gas. Teach Components Once attention is gained, learners are presented with a graphical representation of the water cycle, where they can choose which component to learn first. Because the water cycle does not require a linear format, learners can choose any of the four components in any order. Figure 1 illustrates the instructional flow for teaching objectives. Page 4

7 Figure 1. Sample Instructional Flow for Objectives Evaporation Condensation Precipitation Run-off Precipitation Recall prior knowledge Teach Objective Apply knowledge User selects Water Cycle component. Component is taught. Each objective is presented in a way to allow the learner to recall prior knowledge, learn new content, and then apply new knowledge. For example, in presenting the concept of condensation, the learner is prompted to think about a sweaty glass of water in the summer time, something most 5 th graders have experienced. Next, the concept of condensation is taught, and then the learner is provided an opportunity to apply new knowledge. The formative assessment within each objective provides teacher and student feedback on whether the learner is grasping the concept. Teach Terminal Goal Once the learners learn about the building blocks of the water cycle, the new information will be incorporated into objective #1, the terminal objective: learning about how the components fit into the water cycle. The terminal objective is presented in the same way the other objectives were presented: recall prior knowledge, learn the new content, and then apply new knowledge. Animation, audio, and interactivity is used to illustrate the process and keep learner engaged. Assessment The final assessment tests the learner on the terminal objective. Component is supported by multi-media, such as graphics, sound, animation, and interactivity.
