1
Fold in a challenge
Start with the selection of a learning element focused on a single topic. Find a challenge to present to the learner. This could be a scenario or common dilemma related to the topic. Then give the learner a series of choices for how best to respond to the scenario or to resolve the dilemma.
2
Simmer with carefully selected choice
Giving your learner choices creates engagement by making them consider options and reflect on outcomes – it gets them thinking! Make the choices you offer the learner realistic. Consider using pictures, sample documents, or even video clips. Include frequently-made errors as choices.
Follow-up with feedback – this is the teaching moment. Let your learner know if their choice was correct and why or explain why another option was a better choice.
3
Serve consequences
Link multiple learning elements together to create learning paths for more comprehensive subjects. Add scoring to gamify. This approach works well in a variety of modalities including print, rich-media, and even video which can be used to create interactive video simulations.
