Design blueprints

I created my design blueprints in Prezi, so here is a link to the Prezi online.

Purpose: I appreciate how broadly usable this app will be. It will be a tool to support children in homes, youth for seminary and personal use, and adults as we seek to improve our familiarity with the scriptures. Even with the narrow scope that he intends to tackle for this course, I think is valuable, and I hope it really will continue to expand.

Approach: I like the progressive decrease in text, including the initial dropping of the first letter of each word. I recall using a similar technique manually when I was in seminary and found it to be more effective.

Flow and Function: It appears to be well organized and consistent with other scripture apps. I am curious about how much flexibility users will have in terms of scriptures they would like to select for memorization. Would you like to eventually have them separated verse-by-verse, or do you plan to chunk them? Is there a way that the user could choose multiple verses to view and work through at the same time?

Great job! I look forward to seeing your end product!

Literature review

I met with Dr. Gibbons to talk about some approaches to my question. He suggested some readings for me to peruse. I narrowed down my question a bit after some of my reading. I need to finalize a question, but I'm feeling more confident in the direction.

Open letter to Mom and Dad

Dear Mom and Dad, My current assignment in my foundations of instructional technology class is to write a letter explaining to you in layman's terms a little about the field I am entering. I figure that, since you are often faced with questions about the status of my pursuits in life and because my current life pursuit is labeled with a long-winded title of uncertain meaning, it will be of benefit to actually send you the letter rather than just turning it in for credit. Both of my graduate degrees (first Youth and Family Recreation and now Instructional Psychology and Technology) are a bit unwieldy to the tongue and not immediately clear as to their actual practical value or educational objectives. Although the value and meaning of my YFR degree may be lost in the ether, I hope this letter will at least give you a better idea of what I study now and what will be the likely outcome for my career when I graduate. The field of my current endeavor started out as instructional techn

The funnel of the introduction

The funnel shape of an introduction to a dissertation or research proposal represents a broad statement about a topic that then becomes increasingly focussed toward the final question of interest in the particular research proposal. Here is a possible funnel to my question of interest: Americans seem to have embedded in their collective conscience the image of the rugged individual rising to the top through sheer force of will and on their own merits or because of their lone genius. But current research suggests that lasting innovation and successful businesses result from effective collaboration of many people together rather than from solitary contributions of brilliant individuals. As a result, many organizations espouse a growing need for people in the modern workplace to be able to work in teams in order to innovate solutions to rapidly changing problems in myriad disciplines. Research from the last decade or so has shed new light on the attributes of group creativity an
