Description
You see potential in good design. You can change behavior, drive results, decrease errors, and improve learner engagement. But, even the best designs are jeopardized if the process lacks the ability to support them. A great learning design driven by a flawed process can create havoc, such as:
- Missed milestones
- Unnecessary burden on SME's and reviewers
- Scope -creep
- Unengaged learners
In this webinar, Richard Sites will introduce Successive Approximation Model (SAM). Discover the power of using an iterative, agile-like process for the creation of quality instructional design and development learner-centric experiences and why the agile advantages that SAM offers can mitigate common learning development pain points.
Learn how this agile process can help instructional designers:
- Manage client expectations and content development
- Bring focus to designing performance-focused interactions
- Minimize the risk of delay and endless revisions
