ANALYSIS PHASE 101 E-LEARNING

1. Project BackgroundSubject and Learning Context:

The purpose of this project is to design, develop, and implement an eLearning course, which provides an overview of the Analysis phase of the ADDIE instructional design model. There is a need in our company for focused and effective eLearning training. Currently, most of the training consists of PowerPoint presentations created by Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and published into SCORM 1.2 for online delivery. When employees have been surveyed about their online training experience they have expressed low levels of satisfaction. The results of the surveys have been positive when the training has been developed with the assistance of an instructional designer. SMEs who are not familiar with a systematic approach to design and development of online training have asked our group for help designing educational lessons. To address the need of instructional design fundamentals a series of eLearning courses will be created to introduce SMEs through the process of using a systematic approach to develop educational materials or eLearning courses.

Project Scope:

The “Analysis phase 101” is a self-paced eLearning course. It will introduce the Analysis phase of ADDIE instructional design model. This course will help SMEs identify a training need, determine who their target audience will be, create an instructional goal for their training and write the learning objectives pertaining to their training. The course will be delivered via METRO Alere’s Learning Management System (LMS).

2. Front End AnalysisTarget Learners Analysis:

The target audience comprises Alere legacy employees, who are responsible for training and who have limited to no experience using an instructional design model to create instructional materials. Many of these individuals hold positions in the HR department and others are just SMEs responsible for specific training in their areas of expertise such as Quality. The request to support these individuals has been received through our HR community meetings and through direct request from different business units asking for support with their projects. In summary, our target audience consists of male and female professionals who need design training but lack knowledge on instructional design principles.

Learning Environment/Proposed Delivery Method:

This will be a self-paced eLearning course. The course will be developed using Articulate Storyline software, and it will be available to the identified audience on METRO Alere’s Learning Management System (LMS). The authoring tool was selected because it allows instructional designers create highly interactive eLearning courses. The tool also offers a variety

pg. 3

ANALYSIS PHASE 101 E-LEARNING

of quiz and survey questions to choose from, and that will be useful for the activities planned for this course. Additionally, the authoring tool allows publishing for HTML5 for easy web delivery.

Intended Instruction:

The content will be presented as a standalone, self-paced eLearning module. There is no prerequisite knowledge per say for this course. However, the learners must have an immediate need for the content for them to effectively transfer the newly acquired knowledge to their workplace. The activities for this course include Absorbed, Do, and Connect. The connect activity chosen for this course requires the creation of piece of original work. Per Horton (2012) connect activities are appropriate when “the success of individuals, or organization depends on learners applying skill or knowledge” (p. 165). The table below explains the various types of activities that will be included in the course.

Objective 1 Objective 2 Objective 3 Objective 4 Objective 5Given a list of key questions for identifying training needs, participants will select their top three most urgent needs to address.

Provided basic instructions, participants will accurately create a goal for their instruction

Provided basic instruction, participants will accurately create learning objectives for their instruction.

ANALYSIS PHASE 101 E-LEARNING

One of the considerations for this project is to keep it simple, but still provide enough information to get participants to start thinking like instructional designers. Another consideration is to create most of the content and not include links to external websites. The reasoning for that is that there is a possibility that the course will be translated to other languages and the external resources might only be available in English.

Assessment Plan:

This course will have two assessments; the initial assessment will be embedded within the course in a form of a knowledge check questions. The questions will provide feedback to let the learner know if they have selected the correct response or not. For the second part of the assessment, participants will be asked to complete the Project Overview form (Original work). Per Horton (2012) original work enables the ability to verify that learners can apply the concepts that were presented during the lesson (p. 207). The project overview form requires the following information about their project:

Training need Learners Analysis Context Analysis Instructional goal Learning objectives

The completed form will be sent to the Learning Solutions group for evaluation and feedback.

3. Learning ObjectivesLearning Objectives:

The following learning objectives for this course were written using guidelines described by Mager (1997).

1. Given a list of key questions for identifying training needs, participants will select their top three most urgent needs to address.

2. Provided basic instructions, participants will accurately create a goal for their instruction.3. Provided basic instruction, participants will accurately create learning objectives for their

instruction.4. Given prompting questions about relevant characteristics, participants will accurately

provide information related to their target audience.5. When asked to justify the propose delivery method, participants will provide an accurate

analysis detailing the learning environment and the proposed delivery method.

ANALYSIS PHASE 101 E-LEARNING

1.4

Script: The focus of the Analysis phase is to gather information and outline the scope of your project. You begin by establishing an instructional goal. In order to write your goal, you must first identify the training needs, determine who your learners are, and identify what they will need to be able to do upon completion of the instruction.

Script: In this section, you will learn about identifying the training needs. Select the buttons below to learn about this topic.

2.1(LO1-Intro page)

Script: The first step in the Analysis phase is to identify the training needs.

pg. 11

ANALYSIS PHASE 101 E-LEARNING

2.1(LO1-Content page)

Script: A simple way to determine the instructional need is to ask the following questions: What is the desired performance and what is the actual performance? The difference between the two is the performance gap, which represents the actual need. For example, let’s say that a company’s goal is to increase their gross profit. The company’s desired performance is 50 percent gross-profit margin of sales; the actual performance is 38 percent. Therefore, the need is to increase gross-profit by 12 percent. Once an actual need or performance gap is established, the next questions to ask are: Is training the solution? Can this issue be solved using a different approach such as holding people accountable, increasing incentives, or providing additional resources and tools? If training is a valid solution, additional information should be collected to learn more about the target audience and the learning and performance environment.

2.1(LO1-Activity page)

Script: We have covered some important information in this section. Now, take a moment to consider your training needs.

Feedback when correct:Great Job! Yes, to determine the training needs you must determine what is the desired performance and what is the actual performance. The difference between the two is the performance gap, which represents your actual need.Feedback when incorrect:Unfortunately, you did not select the correct questions. To determine the training needs you must first determine what the desired performance is and what is the actual performance is. The difference between the two, the performance gap, represents your actual need.

Script: In this section, you will learn what an instructional goal is. Select each of the buttons to learn about this topic.

pg. 13

ANALYSIS PHASE 101 E-LEARNING

3.1(LO2-Intro page)

Script: Once you know the actual training needs, it will be much easier for you to state the instructional goal for your training. A goal is a broad generalized statement of what is to be learned during the training. Think of it as a target you are trying to hit.

3.1(LO2-Content page)

Script: To familiarize yourself with the structure of an instructional goal here are some examples for your review. Note, that the first goal states a time limit; this is only appropriate if the task must be completed within a time window to be successful. In this case, the argument could be that the company promised its customers a complete service in a short amount of time.

ANALYSIS PHASE 101 E-LEARNING

4.1(LO3-Content page)

Script: When considering the learning objectives for your instruction, think of them as the steps to carrying out the instructional goal. The learning objectives must describe exactly what the learner will be able to do. Select the pins to read the descriptions of each element of a learning objective, then examine the example at the bottom of the page.

Information pins

Action verb: Specific and measurable actions that describe or classify observable skills, attitudes, or knowledge. The verbs in Bloom’s taxonomy (six levels of learning) are the most widely respected and used.Condition: How the behavior will be performed, circumstances, commands, materials, and directions that the student will be given to perform the behavior. Criterion: How will you evaluate it? How often, how well, how many, how

5.1(LO4-landing page)

Script: In this section, you will learn how the characteristics of the learners might affect the design of your training. Select the buttons below to learn about this topic.

5.1(LO4-Intro page)

Script: The purpose of the Learner Analysis is to understand your target audience as much as possible. Knowing about the characteristics of the learners can affect many of the design choices. For instance, let’s assume that the target audience needs to learn how to use a new software system, but 30% of them are not computer savvy. You may decide that these individuals need to take a pre-training to learn the basic technical skills necessary to navigate the system. Ensuring that all participants have a similar knowledge about the topic will

pg. 19

ANALYSIS PHASE 101 E-LEARNING

increase the effectiveness of the training. 5.1(LO4-Content page)

Script: Examine the questions listed here. The answer to each of these questions will help shape your instruction. Let’s consider the second question. Let’s assume you need to develop a training on project management. Some of your learners are new project managers, and others are just stakeholders. It is evident that the stakeholders don’t need all the information that a new project manager needs. In this case, you may divide your training into two sections. The first will cover the general terminology and process of project management. The second section will take a deep dive into project management, and only project managers will be required to complete that part of the training. This way you can ensure that all the learners get just the information they need to do their job.

5.1(LO4-Activity page)

Activity: We have covered some important information in this section. Now, take a moment to consider the questions below.

pg. 20

ANALYSIS PHASE 101 E-LEARNING

5.2(LO4-Knowledge check)

Feedback when correct:Great Job! Completing a learner analysis will help you shape the instruction, so that the needs of all learners are meet. For instance, you may need to design two versions of the same training to address the needs of individuals in different roles. Feedback when incorrect:Unfortunately, you did not make the right selection. The correct response is “help shape the instruction.” We recommend you review this section of the module.

6.1(LO5-Landing page)

Script: In this section, you will learn the importance of context analysis. Select each button below to learn about this topic.

pg. 21

ANALYSIS PHASE 101 E-LEARNING

6.1(LO5-Intro page)

Script: Not only do you need to determine what the training will include and how the needs of all learners will be addressed, but you will also need to consider the context in which the training lesson will be delivered and the context in which the learners will be using the new skill. When considering the learning environment, you should consider: the facilities, equipment, and resources that adequately support the delivery of training, practice, and assessment.

6.1(LO5-Content page)

Script: Transfer of knowledge and skills from the training to the workplace is more likely to occur when the learning environment provides appropriate practice that simulates the performance environment. For example, let’s say you are developing training for the sales department on how to handle clients’ concerns about the cost of a product. Let’s assume that these concerns would be expressed in a meeting onsite with a client. Ideally, your training would include a roleplay activity. The training room could be setup to emulate this type of situation. This simulation activity could also provide experience even if the
