Professional Development Seminar - DAY 1
e-Learning Starts with Instructional Design
Dick Handshaw, President at Handshaw, Inc., is a consultant, speaker, and champion for real innovation and quality in instructional design. He is a pioneer in the field, with more than 30 years of experience as a learning and performance improvement professional and entrepreneur. Dick has served as a consultant for many organizations to help them establish a results-oriented learning strategy, methodology, and practice.
As someone who created his first e-learning program in 1980, Dick Handshaw knows that nothing did more for the advancement of instructional design than the widespread adoption of e-learning. There is a reason for that. It is very expensive to just start creating an e-learning program without at least some planning ahead of time. Dick’s operation of his e-learning business for 28 years has taught him that the appropriate application of instructional design saves time and money and improves the quality of the outcome.
The first half of this workshop will give participants some hands-on practice at developing a task analysis and writing performance objectives. In the second half, participants will use their work from the morning to develop measurement and instructional strategies for e-learning solutions. During the last hour, attendees will have a special opportunity to participate in a virtual session Handshaw’s senior designers, who create e-learning every day. They will share examples of successful e-learning strategies along with technical tips and advice on tools.
