Chapter 4- Identifying Subordinate and Entry skills
Brown- Conducting Task Analysis, Essentials of Instructional Design
I really enjoyed these chapters and found them to be very informative. Task analysis is the most important part of the instructional design process and forms the basis for the instruction that is being created. I liked how the book talked about different ways that subordinate and entry skills can be identified, but it also mentioned that entry skills are very tentative. I've found this to be a great challenge in my 4th-grade classroom as I have so many students on different levels, particularly in math and reading. It's hard to really ever know where they all are at, and know how to instruct the group as a whole. Modifying instruction is a lot easier said than done! To me, the different models of task analysis were all very similar, and would get you to a similar goal with any that you decided to folllow.
