ASSURE
The ASSURE Model: is a guide for planning and conducting instruction that uses media. The Assure Model has six steps, represented by the acronym in its title that describes a set of
tasks central to the informed selection and use of educational technology. The tasks are:
-
-
-
-
-
-
2. The first “S” stands for State objectives: The next step in planning is to specifically state the objectives for the instructional experience. Objectives typically contain four basic parts:
-
-
-
-
1. The “A” stands for Analyze the learner: The first step in the process is that the teacher should analyze the attributes of her learners. Identify your learners’ expectations, goals, preferences, and needs, so that you can create a blended learning** strategy that offers them real world benefits. The analysis of your learners should include:
The general attributes of your learners, such as age and academic abilities.
-
Learning styles, such as auditory, visual, and tactile
3. The second “S” is Select media and materials: Choose online learning content, multimedia, both online and classroom exercises and materials that will serve your training goals and objectives. This may also pertain to modifying current training content in order to meet the changing needs of your audience.
4. The “U” stands for Utilize media and materials: This step in the ASSURE process concerns making a plan as to how you will utilize the technology, media, and materials that you have selected. It is important to preview the materials before using them. If you decide to use
electronic equipment, practice using the equipment in advance to be sure everything works. If all
is not well, (equipment malfunctions) ensure that you have a plan B.
6. Finally, the “E” stands for Evaluate and revise: After instruction, you must
evaluate the entire instructional process. Always striving to improve is the first step to becoming a better teacher. During the evaluation stage, you should ask yourself questions such as, “Did this lesson meet the objectives?” “Did students gain from this lesson?” Having things go wrong does not make a teacher a bad teacher. However, failing to take preventative actions for the future is bad teaching.
5. The “R” stands for Require learner participation: This step actually belongs within earlier steps. It requires that you make plans to how you are going to actively engage your students in the material that you are teaching. The most basic step that you can take is requiring participation of the students in class discussions. Beyond this, you need to plan exactly how the students will participate in the learning process generally speaking.
