TSHIVENDA http://www.stanford.edu/~cjimenez/Tshivenda/intro_page.html
summary • TSHIVENDA International, Inc. has developed an online • character building site to promote discussions about • character building • Before the actual design and development, research was • conducted to find learning problem and theoretical • framework • We began with ABCD and strong objectives – Bloom’s • Taxanomy • Built the site with ADDIE (With repetition/continuous revision) • Assessment with parents (Pre/Post) -, Discussion Answers • The site has not fully reached its final stage due to time • constraints
What is tshIVENDA? TSHIVENDA Character Building is a website to initiate and support discussions on character development for kids with the use of interactive scenarios and funs TSHIVENDA is an African word for “character” Chivenda is an African word for “character”
Objectives • Indirectly provide kids the opportunity to think about character building topics • Initiate and support discussions on character development for kids with parents • Building a website which can provide interactive scenarios for kids to voluntarily discuss the topics
LEARNING PROBLEMS Don’t have chance to talk about character building because kids appear not interested in the topic and we do not know how to discuss on the issues Don’t have enough time answering students’ questions Don’t understand concept BORING!!!!!!!!!!!
Theoretical framework The Socratic Approach to Character Education This classical technique leads students to recognize contradictions between values they avow and the choices they make — and shows them that they have the power to choose (Elkind and Sweet, 1997). Strength of the Media Video's strength is in its exceptional power to engage young people at the level where they make most of their behavioral decisions (Elkind and Sweet, 1998). Power of Discussion and Reflection The best forms of character education also involve students in honest, thoughtful discussion and reflection regarding the moral implications of what they see around them, what they are told, and what they personally do and experience (Eric Schaps, Esther F. Schaeffer, and Sanford N. McDonnell, op.cit).
audience The intended audience(s) that TSHIVENDA is designed for includes: • Primary audience: 4-10 Year old children with guidance from parents • Target audience: students who have minimal access to talk about “characters” • Unintended audience: anyone who is interested in this topic can participate in the program The basic requirements needed by users of this e-learning course are: • Basic conversational knowledge in English • Basic computer literacy (ie. knowing how to operate a computer, use a mouse, etc) • Note: There are no physical limitations for learners who want to participate in this program, provided they meet the requirements stated above
behavior From participating in the course, learners will be able to demonstrate all of the following behaviors modeled on Bloom’s Taxonomy: • Improve discussion and reflection on building character and morality for global citizenship • Increase exposure to character building thinking situations to reflect more about it • Eventually aim to make “healthy” and mature choices in everyday life
condition To participate in the tutorial, learners are required to have access to the following: • A simple, basic computer (found in public libraries, homes, and/or school computer labs) • One of the following browsers — Internet Explorer 7, Safari 2 or newer, or Firefox 2 or newer, speakers for sound and music • Low bandwidth internet connection (at least dial-up) • Multimedia Player Additional program specifications are: • No use of flash, dreamweaver, etc. in this program Settings in which the course can be implemented are: • Self-motivated learning environment at home • An after-school club • An official course proctored by an instructor/teacher
degree From participating in the course, learners will be able to demonstrate all of the following behaviors modeled on Bloom’s Taxonomy: • The standard for acceptable performance for participants will require learners to discuss the topics • During the course: • Learners are required to understand content material in its entirety for every lesson • The program is not designed to assess the “right or wrong” answers but promote the discussion on the topic • The program caters to individual learning, so no time limit is imposed on the learner to complete the program

REFLECTION- it was fun!!! Collaborative Learning Experience Repetition/discussion/survey/revision– progress and evolvement is really important – we are learning something! What’s Next? – peer pressure(2.0), also repetitive learning experience, application of real field activities(outings) - Apply situated learning - focuses on patterns of coordination in groups of individuals engaged in joint action with material and informational systems in their environments – group discussion
