Need for Instruction: Briefly Articulate Why Instruction Is Needed. Is there a gap in learning? A need to provide instruction on a new skill, etc.?
Learning Objectives: (ONLY 3-5)
Upon completion of this training, the [DESCRIBE TARGET AUDIENCE] should be able to:
- Create a bulleted list
Learner Analysis: (Include detailed descriptions for each of the areas below)
- Learner group:
- Characteristics of the learners:
- Audience size:
- Average age (range):
- Primary role (e.g., student, sales rep, lifelong learner, etc.):
- Technical skills (High, average, low):
- Learning delivery preference (e.g., self-paced, online, f2f):
Resource Analysis:
Content Resources: List any available or to-be-made resources
Technology Resources: List available and/or required technological resources
Human Resources: List trainers or instructors that will deliver the instruction or other available personnel
Instructional Facilities (if applicable):
- Location:
- Available technologies:

Delivery System:
Here you will need to address how the learners are going to receive the instruction and what that looks like. You must include instructor preparation, classroom instruction, demonstration of learning, and if/how feedback will be provided to the learner. This can be a chart or bulleted items. Remember mobile-first mindset.
Timeline:
Now, you will create a timeline of the sequencing of all events from creation of the Design Plan to completion of instruction to assessment of student learning. Make sure to think about all of the step-by-step elements that will need to be completed prior to the instruction of your skill, what will occur the day(s) of instruction, time for assessment/evaluation of learning, feedback to learners, and instructor feedback, and then overall evaluation of plan. Please realize the aforementioned sentences are not an exhaustive list and does not include the nuances of your project, so please personalize it to fit your design.

Development Learning Plan Now you are going to be creating your learning plan. This is taking your task inventory and adding in the instructional elements for each assessment/test item. It is important to note that you need to highlight how the learning/instruction will take place. Also, while it does not happen often, sometimes your activity and assessment will be the same or part of the same item. If that is the case, just make sure the information is detailed and it is clear how that item is an activity and/or assessment. Remember mobile-first mindset in technology and principles. |

|
Learners: What do students need to do before project commences? |
E.g., Register for accounts, bring certain materials, etc. |
Activities and Assessments
For a minimum of two of the lessons in the development section, you will need to provide an activity or assessment from that lesson. Be creative, but remember mobile-first mindset.
