Abstract

In any instructional setting it is important to take into account the ways in which a student’s experience differs from the one that was envisioned by the instructional designer. When providing instruction in a massive online context, the differences between an instructor’s vision and a student’s experience is amplified. We have been exploring techniques that allow designers to tease apart the idiosyncrasy of their instructional interventions in order to improve them. In this presentation we will cover two techniques that we have employed to evaluate and better understand instructional interventions.
