  3. Why this session? • We are usually IT professionals, not educators. • Can sometimes be both, but IT needs help explaining processes to students, faculty, staff.

  4. Who is Austin T. Walden • 8-5 Staff @ TTU – Lead trainer on Banner and Ad Astra • Adjunct Faculty with Political Science & Honors College – TTU and SPC • Certified Flight Instructor – Federal Aviation Administration

  5. Who We Teach • TTU allows Astra access to • All Students • Including Student Organizations • All Faculty • Including Part-Time/Full-Time • All Staff • Valid eRaider

  6. Teaching, not Training • Not Training because we aren’t wanting them to do repetitive tasks. • Want them to think independently.

  7. What is Learning? • Learning is best explained as: • Change in behavior as a result of experience

  8. Thorndike Laws of Learning • Readiness • Exercise • Effect • Primacy • Intensity • Recency

  9. Real Learning is • Learning is Purposeful • Learning is a Result of Experience • Learning is Multifaceted • Learning is an Active Process

  10. Domains of Learning • Cognitive • Affective • Psychomotor

  11. Barriers to Effective Learning • Confusion over Symbol • Overuse of Abstractions • Interference • Lack of Common Experience

  12. Different Methods • In-Person Training • Online Training • User Guides • Over the phone & IM • Lync Communicator

  13. Tab Method • Training By Tabs • Show similarity within the Tabs • Filter, search options, etc

  14. Call & Response • Teaching only effective if duplicated. • Can they remember this when they go back to office? • Anything else is useless

  15. Types of Practice • Deliberate Practice • Blocked Practice • Random Practice

  16. Scenario Based Training • What makes a good scenario? • Clear Objective • Tailored to the Student • Shows nuances of environment • ATW tends to use Deans/Department Chair for examples.

  17. Retention of Learning • PRAISE stimulates remembering • RECALL by ASSOCIATION • Meaningful repetition aids Recall • After the first 10–15 minutes, the rate of retention drops significantly until about the last 5–10 minutes when students wake up again. Students passively listening to a lecture have roughly a five percent retention rate over a 24-hour period, but students actively engaged in the learning process have a much higher retention. This clearly reiterates the point that active learning is superior to just listening.
