Converting to a Distance Learning Format

 For this week’s blog we had to consider the following scenario: A training manager has been frustrated with the quality of communication among trainees in his face-to-face training sessions and wants to try something new. With his supervisor’s permission, the trainer plans to convert all current training modules to a blended learning format, which would provide trainees and trainers the opportunity to interact with each other and learn the material in both a face-to-face and online environment. In addition, he is considering putting all of his training materials on a server so that the trainees have access to resources and assignments at all times.
 I designed a brief instructional guide. The guided consisted of  describing the general abilities of the learners and characteristics. In addition, it emphasized teaching strategies and media selection.  Furthermore, the guide discussed what is needed in the learning environment from the trainer and learner.
