Implementing

The practice of implementing tools for specific learners

Reflecting on Implementation

3/29/2018

0 Comments

 
This section of my ePortfolio focuses on the practice of user-based design and implementation.

When I began to design my ePortfolio, I struggled with the idea of Implementing as its own category. However, after some consideration, I concluded that while there is a lot of overlap between Designing, Implementing, and Analyzing, that Implementing did deserve its own place. That is why I used a Venn diagram for the basis of my portfolio; ideas have their own space, but they also share space with other ideas. 

While there is great joy and excitement in designing a new idea, the difficulty and skill comes to play in executing and implementing the idea. So implementing does involve design, but the practice of implementation specifically looks at the end user and carefully adjusts and caters the design to be successful for the learner that will be using the design, tool, or learning technique.

    Implementing

    The practice of implementing tools and strategies for specific users is an important skill of educational technologists. And being mindful of users is an important part of the PCK of TPCK as "PCK is concerned with the representation and formulation of concepts, pedagogical techniques, knowledge of what makes concepts difficult or easy to learn, knowledge of students' prior knowledge, and theories of epistemology" (Mishra & Koehler, 2006, p. 1027).
