Development
This course was rapidly developed to address an immediate need with limited information. I developed this course using Cathy Moore's Action Mapping. Since this was a hypothetical situation, this process worked best to account for the lack of feedback from implementation. The course is self-paced and allows the learner to return to any topic they wish to review. The goal of this course is to change behavior, so many of the activities are interactive and require action and involvement on the part the learner. The assessment is scenario-based to mimic realistic situations the target audience may face.
