really a large matter
– it is the difference

 The richness of
English allows us to
make subtle distinctions
and to express ideas
with precision.
 Opportunities
for precision
also represent
occasions for error.

troublesome words and
phrases that cause
problems because they
are similar to other words

Symbols

 Paralanguage
The “how” something is said, not what is said.
Words of protest lost their fire when said in a
meek and soft voice.
Tones or voices must match the content of the
message.
Strong paralanguage emphasizes or reinforces
a message with strong points.

Formation
Word, order or sentence structure
cannot be changed after they have
been vocalized.
Nature of writing allows the
creator to sculpture the words.
English is a language that is
derived from many language
influences such as Germanic,
French and Latin.
As a consequence, it is not a
phonetically regular language
as it is influenced by many
phonetic realizations.

be effective when both
sender and receiver in the

Learning Modules
module [ maa . jool ]
 A Learning Module
is an organized
collection of contents
presented together.
A Learning Module
is a separate unit
of software
or hardware.
 Typical characteristics of
modular components
include portability, which
allows them to function
with the components of
other systems.
 A Learning Module
can support a course
goal, a course
objective, a subject, a
concept, or a theme.
 A teacher can set a
structured path
through the content
items using a
storyboard or a set of
dependencies.
 Understanding a
concept is dependent
on understanding
other concept/s in the
module.
 Content within a
Learning Module is
added and managed
just like in any folder in
a content area.
 Students explore the
content in a Learning
Module in any order,
and at their own pace.
The Learning Module is
a shell to which other
content items such as
files, folders and tools
are added.
 Learning Modules
can be modified like
any other item
within a content
area.
 Modular approach
is an emerging trend
in educational
thinking.
 Modular approach
is a shift from traditional
method of instruction to
an outcome-based
learning paradigm.
Modularization
is based on the
principle
of dividing the
curriculum.
 Small discrete
modules or units
that are independent,
non-sequential, and
typically short in
A Learning Module may
be used to present a
series of images and
descriptions of various
animals in a genus.
 Students can view the
images and descriptions
in any order as no order
is required for
understanding the
whole.
 The value of creating
Learning Modules lies in
the ability to integrate
related content and
activities.
 Modules are an effective
and logical way to group
content to match the pace
of materials used as basis
for the curriculum.
 A Learning Module let
students navigate from
one content item to
the next without
distractions.
A successful module has
the stated learning
outcomes or objectives
aligned with teaching
activity and assessment.
 In other words, in the
context of the learning
outcomes, what learning
activities do you want
your students to engage
with?
A Learning Module
may include:
• Content Items
• Files
• Folders
• URLs (external links)
• Mash-ups (multimedia)
• Tests and Surveys
• Assignments
• Discussion Board Forums
• Other Tools
