TE 810 DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF INSTRUCTION By Justine Agaloos

Instructional Goal Identify the parts and functions of a DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex) Camera

Needs Assessment What is: What should be: The “gap”:

What is: Students are unable to know the DSLR parts and functions.

What Should Be: Photography is important to society because it allows people to record historical events, share and communicate.

The “gap” Students are unable to identify the lens, body, flash, viewfinder and shutter release and the functions.

Learner Analysis The learners are college students taking an elective visual arts class. There are no expectations for the students to know the basic parts of the camera.
