Learning experience for adults
As you’ve learned throughout this course, there is much to think about and consider when designing a Learning experience for adults learners. In this assignment, you design a proposal for an online workshop, requiring you to think critically about the type of workshop to create, why the workshop is important for a specific audience, and how to integrate some of the key concepts covered in the prior weeks of the course.
Refer to the Brainstorming Worksheet you completed in the Wk 5 Collaborative Group Discussion: Workshop Brainstorming Activity, specifically the peer review feedback section, and consider the feedback you received.
Confirm that the topic and/or skill you selected is one that you are comfortable with, that you have considerable knowledge about or competence in performing, and that will support a 2- to 3-hour online workshop in an adult education or training environment.
Consider the following as you prepare to write your proposal:
- Participants’ prerequisite knowledge and prior experiences related to the selected topic and/or skill
- Technological expertise required by the facilitator and participants
- Level of the workshop (e.g., beginning, intermediate, advanced)
- Practices for maintaining cultural competency
Part 1: Learning Design Workshop Proposal
Write a 700- to 825-word proposal for an online workshop related to your selected topic and/or skill. Address the following in your proposal:
- Introduce the online workshop with its title and a brief overview, including why the workshop is needed and a description of the target audience. Think of the introduction as a marketing tool to differentiate your workshop from others with a similar title.
- Prepare a workshop statement to explain the following:
- Learning outcomes (i.e., what the participants are expected to learn from the workshop)
- Benefits to the participants and other important stakeholders (e.g., participants\’ employers or colleagues)
- Create an implementation plan for the online workshop that includes the following:
- Method of delivery (e.g., webinar, online through an LMS, video conferencing), including a justification for choosing the delivery modality
- Technology tools that are needed to facilitate and participate in the workshop, including a description of how they will be used to engage the workshop participants
- Develop a facilitation plan for the online workshop that includes the following:
- Learning activities (e.g., readings, videos, interactives)
- Critical thinking strategies to incorporate (e.g., reflection, conversations/dialogue, critical action)
- Strategies for providing an inclusive workshop environment (e.g., culturally competent, equitable, accessible)
- Create an evaluation strategy for determining the online workshop’s success.
Part 2: Learning Design Workshop Infographic
Create a visually appealing 1-page infographic marketing your online workshop. Highlight the following in your infographic:
- Selected topic and/or skill
- Learning outcomes
- Target audience
