Push Transitions for ILT
In my DIY Instructional Design blog post on using PowerPoint for learning modules, I mentioned the creative use of slide transitions as a simple way to add a bit more elegance to a straightforward Instructor-Led Training. This video shows one way to do that by using the PowerPoint "push" transition.
Problem: A certain department of a technical college experienced high turnover among new adjunct instructors. This affected the continuity of instruction and student satisfaction.
Analysis: Informal surveys and reviews of formal exit interviews were conducted. Two themes emerged: (1) Instructors are provided with teaching materials created by their predecessors but without specific education in instruction, they struggle in adapting the materials to their own style. (2) Most have had limited experience in providing group instruction.
Learning Solution: A self-paced teaching workshop. The workshop was placed on a website for instructors to access before they received access to the school's intranet. This allowed them to learn at their own pace.
It featured an introductory video establishing the relevance of the workshop and preparing the instructors for what to expect.
