Adding one agenda item and flipping around order WAS: RE: WAI Curricula Task Force meeting for Tuesday May 19

Hey all,

 

Agenda+ Use of the verb "Understand" in learning outcomes.

 

Use of "Understand" is often considered too passive a verb to be use in learning outcomes. However, there is also

literature that introduces its use within the cognitive domain, revising the Bloom's taxonomy. Some examples of our use are: 

"Understand how different assistive technology users orient and navigate web pages".

"Understand how users interact and move through headings in a web page".

"Understand how users interact and move through the different sections of a web page".

 

We previously had "recognize", and we could have something like "Acknowledge", "Familiarize with", "Become familiar with" or "get

acquainted with". I see all of these examples as different ways to actually mean understand, so I would mildly go for "understand".

Do you suggest other phrasings of these sentences [to avoid using the term understand]?

 

 

 

 

I propose to flip around agenda items today. First, we will talk about the restructuring of module 1, after that , we will be
talking about the use of "understand", and lastly, about teaching ideas.

Agenda:

 

Agenda+ Providing more guidance to teaching ideas. Is this the type of guidance that you think is required? Do you have some other
proposals on guidance that could be used?

 

-------

 

Teaching ideas have been expanded. They now link to specific tutorial pages or to specific techniques. See work in modules 1 and 2.

https://deploy-preview-172--wai-curricula.netlify.app/curricula/developing-accessible-content/navigation-and-menus/

 

-------

 

Agenda+ Restructuring topics in module 1 Does this new structure cover specifics better? Do you think there are any other things
that could be de-generalized?

 

-------

 

Topics in module 1 have been reported to cover too general aspects, that could technically be covered in any module of this
curriculum. Work has been started to nudge these topics a little bit. Materials under previous topic "Different ways of browsing
web pages" have been split and are now under:

- Newly created topics in module 1.

- Topic "Patterns for navigation" in module 2.

 

Previous versions:

Thanks.
