Instruction is embodied in a library of questions. Questions are the underlying instructional tool, questions of instruction rather than questions of assessment. Questions can be created which meet specific criteria. Before writing a question, the designer decides on the instructional purpose of the question. Thirdly, we have teaching.
Teaching is the process of working with specific students.
The teacher needs to be knowledgeable in the area and have a gift for teaching. Teachers select questions from the question library to meet the needs of the specific student. As the students work in self-selected groups and alone, the teaching mode becomes, in part, asynchronous. Each student can be taught on an individual basis, even in a classroom setting or in a distributed learning environment. This technology-integrated model of teaching allows specialization of skills for creating resource access, question libraries, and teaching students.
