Which learning activity aligns to the behaviorist approach? - Answer>>>:
The inclusion of an interactive game that awards points for achievements
Which learning activity aligns to the cognitivist approach? - Answer>>>:
Students are asked to create a mind map to summarize the key concepts
of a passage.
Which instructional strategy aligns to the needs of an adult learner? -
Answer>>>: Assignments develop skills that can be implemented to
real-world experiences.
Which instructional strategy aligns to the needs of a young learner? -
Answer>>>: Young learners are usually externally motivated to learn.
They often learn to meet the expectations of their parents or teachers. So

Learning principle of providing multiple means of action and expression? -
Answer>>>: Allowing learners to select from a list of choices to share
their understanding of an assigned text.
What is a characteristic of learning experience design? - Answer>>>: It is
focused on individual learners and how they achieve desired learning outcomes.

Involve learners in the design process and ensure the design provides a
great user experience.
Which scenario demonstrates the determine acceptable evidence stage of

A designer is creating an instructional module and selecting learning resources
to address the instructional needs of the target learners.
What step of ADDIE is the designer on? - Answer>>>: Develop
What is a key difference between the SAM approach to instructional design and
the Understanding by Design (UbD) approach? - Answer>>>: UbD
emphasizes learning assessment, whereas SAM does not emphasis it as much.
A designer observes and engages with real users to see how they interact with a
prototype. He pays close attention to facial expressions and body language and
asks them to talk about the experience.
Which phase of the Design Thinking Process is the designer on? - Answer>>>:
Empathize
Which phase of the Design Thinking Process invites iteration in a similar way to
the successive approximation model (SAM)? - Answer>>>: Prototyping

Which learning activity aligns to the constructivist approach? - Answer>>>:
Students are asked to work collaboratively to propose a solution to a real-
world problem.
The constructivist approach is based on the idea that learners use their previous
knowledge as a foundation for building new knowledge. A principle of the
constructive approach is that learning is a social activity and that group work is
key for retaining new knowledge.
Which learning activity aligns to the connectivist approach? - Answer>>>:
Participation in an online discussion board is an essential part of the
course and students are encouraged to provide feedback to peers.
What is a characteristic of an adult learner? - Answer>>>: The learner is
self-directed
What is a characteristic of a young learner? - Answer>>>: The learner
