The optimal learning experience

Background and Project Goal

The goals and objectives for this project will focus on:• Developing a quality product that is highly interactive and engaging, while keeping speed-to-

market in mind• Migrating provided content into self-paced, web-based training modules within 6 months and

the allowed budget

Summary Description of the TrainingThe specific requirements include: • Producing up to six training courses in Adobe Captivate, each consisting of four 60-minute

modules, for a total of 24 modules (24 total hours of training)• Building courses utilizing the provided IAPP objectives, Design Document, Style Guide, and

storyboards• Building courses that are fully narrated and will contain all the elements specified in the Design

Document• Producing final deliverables that will be SCORM 1.2 compliant and will also be fully compatible

with IAPP’s TopClass LMS

Target Population Information

The following information is known regarding the learners, their level of knowledge toward the subject, and the prerequisite knowledge required: • Pharmaceutical professionals who hold at least a Master’s degree in their technical field• Learners are US-based and English-speaking• No prerequisites are required• Approximately 2,000 learners will be involved in the courses

Course StructureFigure 1 below shows the flow of the modules, learners will choose the module they want to complete first. Figure 2 to the right shows the flow/layout for the modules, each module follows this same flow. The learner will be required to complete each course sequentially.

Instructional StrategiesThe following instructional strategy was selected and applied to the courses (see descriptions about each strategy in the notes area below):

• Learning Contracts

• Connect training needs to individual learner’s needs

• Forum Platform

• Discuss issues; make comments; offer information; ask questions

• Collaborative Learning

• Promote cognitive development, self-esteem, and positive learner-learner relationships

• Mentorship

• Allow frequent, and convenient communication between mentor and student

Instructional StrategiesThe following instructional strategy was selected and applied to the courses (see descriptions about each strategy in the notes area below):

• Self-guided learning

• More involved, more motivated and more active

• Guided design

• Encourage learners to think critically and communicate ideas

• Role play

• Promotes understanding of other people’s position and attitudes

• Games

• Reflect typical real-life situation

Testing Strategies

• Students will be assessed throughout the completion of the modules• A Pre-Quiz will be administered at the beginning of each course module

• The Pre-Quiz will consist of 20 randomized multiple choice questions from a quiz bank• A score of 100% on the Pre-Quiz will allow students to “skip over” the module

– Students will still have the option of viewing the material and completing the module• A Post-Quiz will be administered at the end of each course module

• The Post-Quiz will consist of 20 randomized multiple choice questions from a quiz bank• Students will receive immediate feedback upon completion of the Post-Quiz• A score of 85% or greater on the Post-Quiz is required for mastery

– If a score of <85% is achieved, students will have the ability to review the content and try again until mastery is reached

Design Considerations

• Design Considerations• Courses will be highly engaging and interactive• Courses will be developed in English only• There are no prerequisites for the courses• Students can save their progress in the modules to return at a later time

• Technical Considerations• Courses will be fully compatible with Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Safari browsers

• Courses will be SCORM 1.2 compliant and will be compatible with IAPP’s TopClass LMS• All modules will be fully narrated with transcripts provided and will include play, pause, seek, and

volume controls• Videos will be embedded at 640x360 (16:9) size

• Course content, such as transcripts and diagrams, will also be available in “printer friendly” versions for students to print
