Q1. Blanchard and Thacker (2013) state that on-the-job training is “the most frequently used training method” (p. 225). Have you experienced any on-the-job training? If so, were any of Gagne-Briggs’ Nine Events incorporated into the training? Describe the training and how some or all of Gagne’s events were incorporated.

Q2. You have been asked to develop a diversity awareness training session for managers. This will be the first in a series. The goal of this first session is to introduce the company’s policy regarding diversity and the importance of having a workplace that embraces diversity and inclusiveness. Review the examples of learning objectives in the Writing Good Learning Objectives (I-TECH, 2010) reading, then write two specific learning objectives for the session and discuss why you think they will ensure that the training goal is achieved.

Q3. This week’s tool, A Read and Do Test, is an activity that is best done with a larger group. Follow the instructions in the attached document. You could invite some relatives and/or friends over and promise them cookies and punch to help you with a school assignment. It might be fun to do with co-workers at lunch or after work, or perhaps in a staff meeting (if you have good relationships with your boss and your colleagues, they might agree to do it if you tell them it’s an assignment for school). But do be careful to keep the tone light — some people feel embarrassed if they have called out “I have” or counted aloud from 10 to one. It’s good to remind people that we live in a society that puts a premium on speed, but not necessarily accuracy — just think about elections and how the news agencies try to be the first to predict a winner.
