Abstract
The
purpose
of this
study
was to
develop
a
self-instructional
learning
activities
package
about
book
design
, and to
test
it
on a
group
of
vocational
students
, in
order
to
identify
problem
areas
in the
development
of this
type
of
instructional
material
and to
construct
a
model
for
systemic
development.
--
The
unit
consists
of a
booklet
containing
about
forty
pages
of
information
interspersed
with
review
questions
and
practice
exercises.
It
was
tested
on
two
classes
at the
College
of
Trades
and
Technology
in
St.
John's
,
Newfoundland.
The
formative
evaluation
was
performed
by the
Commercial
Art
class
of
1983
, the
summative
evaluation
by the
Printing
Class
of
1985.
--
The
students
wrote
a
pre-test
before
studying
the
material
and a
post-test
afterwards.
In the
course
of the
formative
evaluation
, the
unit
was
revised
and
retested
when
the
survey
of
student
attitudes
and an
item
analysis
indicated
that
parts
of
it
were
confusing
to the
students.
--
Statistical
analyses
of the
pre-test
,
post-test
and
retest
scores
were
attempted
, but were
inconclusive
because
of the
small
number
of
students
involved.
--
The
developer
concluded
that the
self-study
method
works
well
for
imparting
cognitive
skills
, but that the
learning
of
psychomotor
skills
is
dependent
upon
the
live
presence
of a
skilled
expert.
--
The
instructional
unit
has been
used
as a
model
for the
revision
of the
entire
sixty-six
module
Printing
curriculum
, at the
College
of
Trades
and
Technology.
