Computers in Education

Imagine that you must make a proposal to your supervisor to create a training workshop for new hires in your field to help them acclimate to their jobs. Write a 500-word essay explaining your proposal to a colleague. Include a description of the position being trained. Identify and explain the learning objectives for the workshop. How do you plan to deliver the training: face-to-face or online? Why did you choose this mode of delivery? What learning technologies and resources would you use, and why did you make these choices? Be sure to support your reasons throughout with information found in the readings and materials assigned in this module.
