OVERVIEW

Based on research on the design context and the client interview, use an ID model of your choice to come up with a design brief that includes product recommendations that you would produce. The project is introduced on the next page. Page 3 contains details of your final design specifications.

Scenario: Faculty Training for Flipped Class Model

The department chair of the Environmental Engineering department of a local university is interested in having faculty in his department use what has been referred to as The Flipped Classroom Model. He’s heard people talk about the Flipped Class Model and read a few articles about its use; however, he is unclear how to best implement this model. He has contacted you to come and conduct a series of workshops for the faculty in the department.

Client Interview Process

As part of the instructional design process you will meet with the client to get a better understanding of what the client would like to see happen, what the desired outcomes are, and any organizational constraints. Your client may also have specific ideas on how they feel the product should look.

Flipped Class Model

You will likely need to do a little research on what this entails.

Product Design Specifications

Your task is to make recommendations for the final product that will teach faculty how to implement the flipped class model in their courses. You should select one ID model and explain the tasks and activities necessary to complete the project.

Your assignment should use the Product Design Specifications template that starts on the next page.

Objectives

What are the objectives for your project?

Your Project/Product

This is a brief description of the project/product you’ve decided to develop, and you feel is the best way to accomplish the objectives. This should include:

· E.g., Delivery mode for your “Workshop”— e.g., web site, training, online materials, etc. This may include more than one of delivery method.

· Justification for your decision (why did you make the choices you did?)

Means

What is the best way to accomplish the objective?

Here’s where you might say, “Design a web site (or ad campaign or brochure.)” Always keep this issue open while you are exploring the other aspects of the project. The project details section is where you will expand upon this.
