1 - Design: Lay the Foundation[edit | edit source]

The Design phase is central to the development process, establishing a strong foundation for the module. This phase involves understanding the learner demographic, defining clear objectives, structuring the team, and planning the course content.

  1. Understanding Learners & Setting Objectives
  2. Team Structuring & Course Planning
  3. Module Content Development

2 - Prototype: Build the Training Module[edit | edit source]

In the Prototype phase, the theoretical planning of the Design phase is put into action on the Appropedia platform. This phase encompasses platform setup, team registration, and the integration of content into a working module. It's within this phase that the course materializes, providing the first look at the functional module.

  1. Platform Set-up & Team Registration
  2. Content Implementation
  3. Page Refinement

3 - Test: Ensure Module Effectiveness[edit | edit source]

The Test phase is the final step in the development process. It entails evaluating the module's effectiveness in meeting the learners' needs and achieving the established objectives. This phase includes participant recruitment, testing sessions, data analysis, and module refinement based on feedback. The ultimate goal is to ensure the module is effective, user-friendly, and achieves the desired learning outcomes.

  1. Participant Recruitment & Testing Strategy
  2. Data Analysis & Feedback Incorporation
  3. Iterate & Improve
