Alright folks – I’m back from DevLearn 2018, and I’m\u00a0almost<\/span> fully recovered, but not quite at 100% just yet. DevLearn was a blast, it was a whirlwind of a week for me, and over the next several days, I’ll be posting recaps for everything I participated in, beginning with the pre-conference certificate workshop that I delivered.<\/p>\n

This year was my first time delivering a pre-conference certificate workshop for the E-Learning Guild, so I was incredibly nervous for a few reasons:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. It was my first time delivering a pre-conference certificate workshop for the E-Learning Guild<\/li>\n
  2. I typically teach this workshop as an M.Ed graduate course over a full semester<\/li>\n
  3. This course is available in its entirety at Sprout E-Learning (GO CHECK IT OUT!)<\/a> and it is nearly 70 lessons, so condensing it into 6.5 hours was daunting<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The first thing I have to say is: I had a fantastic group of participants. They were incredibly engaged, despite the boatload of theory I was cramming down their throats, and those who provided feedback were incredibly positive about the workshop and its delivery. They were the best participants I could have had for my first workshop!<\/p>\n

    I began with some introductions, housekeeping, and an ice breaker. I was SHOCKED when I asked how many people hated ice breakers as much as me and only three people raised their hands. AMEN!<\/p>\n

    We spent much of the morning discussing the ADDIE framework and Instructional Design models as a lead up to the first big activity: creating your own Instructional Design model. I had each table create a model, based on the things we discussed previously, and then I had them give me a sales pitch, fielding questions as they pitched. Everyone was so engaged in this activity that it went overtime! Look at all of these people working hard to create their models!<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    After lunch we really hammered through all of the learning theories, as well as doing a deeper dive through each phase of the ADDIE framework, discussing elements contained throughout each. At the end of the day, each group reviewed a self-paced course against an evaluation\/QA criteria sheet and we discussed the importance of evaluation, and how, based on all that they learned within the workshop, each course was lacking or succeeding.<\/p>\n

    Overall, it was a great pre-conference certificate workshop. I was pleasantly surprised with the level of engagement, I believe I converted some folks further into the idea of pursuing a role as an Instructional Designer, and I look forward to receiving the session evaluations so that I can optimize the workshop for its next delivery!<\/p>\n

    If you’re interested in participating in the full course, Essentials of Instructional Design<\/a>, it is offered through Sprout E-Learning<\/a>. It consists of nearly 70 lessons, activities throughout (that you can complete and submit, or not – whatever you prefer), and has been very well-received since launch. Check it out!<\/a><\/p>\n
