Validation

I must admit, I was a bit nervous submitting my design doc after the first week’s meeting, when we were told, you will most likely get your document sent back with the need for rework, lots of rework.  Well, I went for and did I what I have always done, design instruction.  Now, in education do you rarely design according to the format required, but the basics are all the same, who are you designing for, why are you designing, define goals and objective, and develop meaningful exercises and resources, no fluff. Thank you for the addition of the example for reference.  Whether following this particular format or what I usually do, ok the format is definitely more organized and helpful, I must follow my beliefs on education and learning.  When I am finally designing for someone else, I will abide by theirs.  So I designed and it worked in my favor. 

I am fortunate that I had few revisions/additions to make.  I did add that the goals and objectives were adopted from Texas Education Association, Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for Career and Technical Education Subchapter O. Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (2015).  As well as assigning the appropriate goal and objective to each learning activity and not the module as a whole.  I also corrected a few spelling/grammar issues pointed out by my partner.  I feel very good about what I created and am started to feel validated as a designer.
