Basa Casa = Task House
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Are you ready to realize the promise of education & training?
Learners will perform complex skills better after taking the courses you design this way.
The fragmented, compartmentalized instruction you’re providing is likely not delivering the complex skills it’s intended to compile into. There is a better way. 20 years of research into the 4C/ID model reveals “..the use of educational programs developed with 4C/ID has a high impact on performance (d = 0.79 standard deviations)..” (Costa, Miranda, & Melo, 2022)
- Created by our field’s most cited scientist, Dr. Jeroen J.G. van Merrienboer.
- Derived from Cognitive Load Theory.
- Requires iterative, collaborative design.
We’re making free software for you to design it with.
- Admin, admin-scms, and admin-hugo CMS generators to build interfaces for any repository contents.
- In progress: Casa course template to build 4C/ID experiences as static websites.
- In backlog: IMS CC manifest output format and packaging GitHub action.
- On roadmap: basa.casa Forgejo instance to collaborate on 4C/ID courses.
- On roadmap: barrio Forgejo helm chart to host your private basa.casa clone.
Learn how to use it all
Our course, Instructional Design for Complex Skills, is meta.basa.casa. It’s a course about making courses using the model and tools, using that model and those tools. The design of the course is a learning task in the course itself.
- Built with 4C/ID so that you will be able to do it after successful training.
- Each course seat includes one design project assessment.
- Early adopters can contribute tasks to this course and earn royalties.
