open data

I think I chose a course on  "open data ". The five steps of the training course are:

1/ Analysis:   One very common question is: What is the purpose of the training? Why do we do that?

What type of behavioral change is required? Will training really help? This stage should be a complete review of the audience, business objectives, training methodologies used and media types

used, etc. Once this is done, I will develop a training plan that addresses the following:

Who, What, When, Where, Why, How?

The core of my training plan will be “How can we improve the situation and achieve business goals through training?”. I will use this question as the basis for the rest of the process. I should come up with: An “Open Data” training needs analysis and training plan.

2/ Design :

this is where I take all of the learnings of the previous phase and use it to make practical decisions. This includes a strategy, delivery methods, structure, duration, assessment, and feedback. The next step is to storyboard your ideas and/or create a prototype. i am creating a blueprint for my courses, and by making a prototype I can quickly communicate with other stakeholders the value of the training.

At this stage, I will use an attractive design to attract the learner's attention and also educational activities that help them understand and enjoy the training course.

 IN THIS STAGE , I should come out with: an overview of the course design and storyboards/prototypes.

3/ Development:

At this stage, I can begin to create the courses. I will be heavily guided by the prototype/storyboards at this point. Each element of the course should be developed to match the design phase. The core of the content has already been decided. All I need IS  to add is a level of detail and polish to the courses.

This is done by adding graphics, choosing colors and deciding on fonts. To some, this may seem trivial, but it has a huge bearing on how engaging the course content is.

The careful selection of these elements allows me  to present the course in a manner that will appeal to the audience .

The development process should be iterative. Once you have created a course you should test it to ensure there are no basic errors - grammar, spelling, syntax etc. Testing should also look at the mechanics of the course. A key consideration at this stage is navigation.

At this point, I have to combine the Newest in the field of “open data” with some examples related to their current work. It must be constantly developed to suit the latest topics.

In this stage I should come out with: Course Content.

4/ Implementation:

Once I have completed MY course "open data " and I AM satisfied that they are fully tested, it’s time to share them with the learner. The decisions made in the design phase will influence how this is actually carried out. In the majority of cases, the courses are uploaded to an LMS and the delivery options are set up - who are enrolled, how much time are they given, pass marks for assessments, and the collection of feedback. The delivery, tracking, and reporting are all handled by the LMS.

 

 ME or The instructional designer should monitor the situation for any teething issues. One of the best was to prevent against any problems in the implementation phase is to conduct a pilot of a course before unleashing the content on the entire group.

In this stage I should come out with: MY courses "open data "  are live in the LMS and learners can start to take and complete courses .

5/ Evaluation:

 Getting feedback on every aspect of the courses is really important so that you can improve and revise the content. What Should i focus on:

● Did we meet the goals as set out in the analysis phase?

● Take feedback and place back into the analysis phase.

● Identify other training requirements.

● Possible change in media types or approach.

 i think  A great way to get feedback is to ask learners to complete surveys at the end of their course. This can be done within the course (using your authoring tool) or as by the LMS.

i will Create questions specific to the points above but, also encourage learners to give feedback in a free text box so that you are aware of any gaps you may not have thought of.

 IN THIS STAGE , I should come out with: An evaluation report and actionable changes for the current or future courses .
