 PROBLEM & AUDIENCE

Problem 1: College students needing training to learn how to use the Echo
Smartpen to record lectures.

Problem 2: Too many students to train each one via Zoom/ FaceTime, and
using videos does not provide opportunity for feedback.
GOAL:

Provide training to students remotely while reducing the amount of Zoom/

FaceTime training sessions, and provide a way to measure their knowledge.
 OBJECTIVE
Create an online training module with quiz and questionnaire to
provide to students for independent training on the Echo SmartPen.

 IMPLEMENTATION
The training module is implemented through
an email send to the student requesting that
they complete the online training module for
the Echo Smart Pen.

The training module is constructed

using Microsoft PowerPoint,
Microsoft Forms, and the internet.
Microsoft Forms tracks participation.

The task of providing one-to-one training with

students now becomes a self-paced online
learning session that provides feedback.

The instructor now only provides for training

assistance at the student’s request.

 ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS

Some ethical considerations:

- Is creating an online training module in

the best interest of the students?

- Is it OK to post pictures & descriptions

from the company website into the
training?

- Is an online training module accessible

and appropriate for all students?
