AECT Standard 4.5 - Ethics
"Candidates demonstrate ethical behavior within the applicable cultural context during all aspects of their work and with respect for the diversity of learners in each setting." (AECT, 2012)

Artifact 25 – Designing Lesson Plan Using ADDIE Model
Description
This artifact was created in the Fall of 2018 for Dr. Joseph Kush’s GDIT 715 - Instructional Learning Theory, course. The objective of this project was to create a lesson plan for a learning unit using an instructional design model and one of the learning theories we had learned about during the semester considering the diversity of learners and federal and state policies in the lesson planning process. Therefore, I first assessed the learners characteristics, then used the ADDIE Design Model to create the learning course plan. I created a lesson plan for a learning unit to be used in a second-grade science classroom in a way that meets the needs of diverse learners and made learning accessible to all students.
Reflection
This assignment provided me with an opportunity to practice ethical behavior while designing all parts of the instructional plan. In this instructional design project, I took into consideration the learners' diversity by using a variety of instructional techniques such as teacher demonstrations, multimedia, hands-on activities, discussion, and peer collaboration. Additionally, the lesson plan described how learners' characteristics and diversity were considered in the planning process and how local, state, and federal policies and ethical practices apply. Therefore, I believe this artifact demonstrates my proficiency in AECT’s Standard 4.5, which states that “Candidates demonstrate ethical behavior within the applicable cultural context during all aspects of their work and with respect for the diversity of learners in each setting.”
