The anti-course: An instructional job aid — from Making Change by Cathy Moore
If you’re teaching a process or other practical action, consider creating an instructional job aid that helps learners apply the new process immediately to a real-world task. The mega job aid:
- Provides the how-to information typical to a job aid
- Includes the kind of thought-provoking questions and motivational messages often found in a course
- Emphasizes immediate application of the new process to the real world
- Takes as long as the real world task requires—it’s not a 30-minute insta-cure
