Teaching new policy isn’t my favorite use of online training. I would rather develop lessons on behavioral change and focus on what should the learner should do differently based on the new or updated rules and related procedures. But I get it- sometimes an online learning lesson is the easiest and most efficient way to disseminate information and details regarding a new guideline.
There are plenty of details to consider when you design this sort of information heavy lesson, but you will always want to include some sort of acknowledgement interaction. The next two posts will demonstrate few ideas you may be able to apply to confirm learners’ understanding and acknowledgement of the policies you are teaching and demonstrating.
Today we’ll look at the built-in, graded question format “check many”. You may typically use this type of slide during a quiz or interaction to check a learner’s competencies. (For example: Select all the vegetables: carrots; celery; apples; strawberries; onion; spinach; grapes; potatoes.) For the design purposes briefly mentioned above you could add this type of slide to a policy tutorial to have the learner acknowledge his/her understanding of the policy, procedure, or guideline discussed during your lesson.
You can use the link at the bottom of this post to see this in action! Just remember, if you’re using this type of acknowledgement be sure to set up the course reporting to track this slide- either as part of the graded quizzing OR tracking for completion. (Select whatever may work best for your needs, your learners, your LMS, and other tracking/reporting considerations.)
Visit again soon! In the next post, I’ll demonstrate my favorite way to collect a policy acknowledgement during a lesson.
