Hazardous Waste Refresher Training
ILT Competencies Demonstrated in Bipolar Disorder Project
Reflective Practice
Take a systems view
- I took into account the context under which the learning would be executed. I understood the systemic approach of the ADDIE model to provide a framework for development and delivery of the product.
- I was aware of values and barriers of the learner.
Use cycles of reasoning as tools for problem solving
I used the Morrison, Kemp and Ross instructional design model to provide cycles of reasoning for problem solving.
Promote collaboration, partnerships, and relationships for full inclusion.
I utilized questionnaires provided by stakeholders, interviewed the stakeholders and consulted with potential users of the product.
Be a lifelong learner and professional
I utilized my newfound knowledge about the science of instruction. I had to learn three new softwares (Sqeeze, Cinematize and Final Cut Pro) and further develop my capabilities with Dreamweaver, CSS, Actionscript and Flash.
Planning and Analysis
Conduct a needs assessment
My needs assessment was provided by stakeholder input.
Conduct a learning or performance instructional analysis:
I performed a learner, contextual and task analysis.
Design and Development
Apply various theories/strategies and current research, and consider local needs and constraints to design activities and experiences for learning (with documentation)
- I tried to utilized problem based learning by guiding the learner to develop strategies that are relevant to their profession.
- In addition, I utilized a pedagogical agent to enhance learning.
Develop products and resources to support learning and performance (with documentation)
- I developed this product through the use of stakeholder input, a felt needs questionnaire, a task analysis, a learner analysis, and a contextual analysis.
- I then adhered to the given learning objectives and used sound instructional strategies based on an expanded performance-content matrix.
- Finally, I developed assessment strategies and an evaluation plan.
Management
Employing effective strategies (e.g., team leadership, collaboration, accountability), manage one or more of the following endeavors:
- I managed all aspects of this instructional design project.
- I managed the development of the technology.
- I managed the information resources (i.e. subject matter experts, stakeholders, books, and video) relevant to the instruction.
Overview: In this course the learner will review critical safety and environmental protection practices that meet local, state, and federal regulations, including how to
- Store and handle your hazardous waste
- Manage Material Safety Data Sheets
- React to emergencies
- Prepare hazardous waste for pickup
- Dispose of waste sharps and empty containers
The Learning Goal: At the completion of this course experience, the learner will be able to identify and comply with hazardous waste disposal and spill protocols, thus reducing the number of hazardous waste incidents.
