Assignment Number # 1
Identify a job which you are an experienced content expert. Focus your instructional design package for this course on a specific area of the job which appears to be a problem or concern for management related to knowledge, skills, and/or attitudes. For example, when I was an employee of Bethlehem Steel, the one skill that I was not comfortable with if the job were assigned to me was splicing steel cable. We were not provided with formal training so during my off hours, I observed a supervisor splice a steel cable and discussed the procedure with him when both of us were off duty. This was just a small but important part of my future job responsibilities later as a supervisor. The problem area you identify should lend itself to a one or two hour time for instruction or training. In this assignment, identify the occupation and the specific problem that needs to be addressed in the instructional package you will prepare for this course.
Note: I worked in 2009 Secretariat , Training Center Kindergarten in Saudi Arabia, Buraydah city
So you can choose this position to write this paper and note that this is a project so I will build a more paper regards to this paper.
