I am absolutely amazed at all the different ways there are to analyze a problem. I think that all the information is great that I am reading about different methods of task analysis, but I’m also feeling very overwhelmed. Then in the book, “The Systematic Design Of Instruction” (Dick, Carey, and Carey) it talks about hierarchical analysis and I keep wondering how I would use that in my final project. Or, if I have to use this type of system for the task analysis.
For our final project, I have suggested that we create instruction on understanding computer adaptive testing. I was reading ksl.com about computer adaptive testing and many of the comments people were making showed that they had little understanding as to how these types of tests work. If the entire group agrees on this topic, we need to start the analysis. It will be interesting to see what questions we come up with.
