Background—Current Status of Gen- Eds:• Taken approximately 9 months

to get this far into development

• Our job: Polish up courses for development


Pulse Check—FDA Concerns:

•Some Gen Eds more complete than others

•Variations in language, formatting, functionality, and 508 compliance

•Storyboards may need to be revised or recreated

For Example:

• Active vs. passive sentence structure

• Use of he/she where “they” or “they’re” may be preferred

• Back and forth use of “inspector” and “investigator” rather than “regulator”

• Inconsistencies regarding APA formatting/style

• Inconsistencies between sections such as title page, objectives, and knowledge checks


FDA Concerns—A Little Deeper:

• Course content must be linked to competency statements

• Written for all jurisdictions (Federal, State, Local, Tribal)

• Review content across the content areas—Consistency in how they look and function

• “Pop-ups” in many of the modules are not 508 compliant

• May need to edit out “fluffy” language in some content areas/modules

• Some content areas may be too short

• Narratives embedded into units may need to be converted into readable slide content on the page

• Others may be too long

• Can this information be presented more succinctly?

• Units or modules in some content areas my need to be broken up to be more manageable


FDA Concerns—A Little Deeper:

• Every content area needs a resources and glossary (not all have one)

• Not all content areas have knowledge checks• SMEs will have to formulate

questions• Knowledge

checks/assessments can have only two options• A. Correct Answer• B. Incorrect Answer

• SME focus should be on the quality of the question

• Feedback on knowledge checks/assessments needs to be built in

• Each content area needs a “Welcome” page• Including objectives

• Each content area needs a “Credits” page

• Each content area needs a “Summary” and “Closeout” page• Summary page is NOT a repeat

of the objectives page• Should include test results


FDA Concerns—A Little Deeper

•Replace existing images only if they are low quality

•Use a common lexicon (Handout)

•For example:Inspector = Investigator =Regulator


On-Line Course Development Process: Simplified

Course Design Document

Storyboard (SMEs)

Lectora (AFDO)


Goal for Final Product:

•That each Gen Ed module be written in “one voice”•That, across modules, there is consistency in language, formatting and functionality•Compliance with 508 standards


Goal for Final Product:

•Uniform storyboards for each content area/Gen Ed domain

• Logos, font sizes, images, etc. are all consistent across content areas/domains

• In short, consistency across all content areas

•Applicability across jurisdictions


Interdisciplinary Team NeededTo Complete the Scope of Work:

Gen Ed Team to include:•Project Manager• Instructional Design

Lead and Team•Writer/Editor•SMEs

AFDO intends to leverage some of the ISD work with IFPTI partners


*As SME, your primary focus will be updating the storyboard for your course(s)*Focus on content*AFDO/ISD to focus on formatting

Let’s Make It Simple—Focus of SMEs:

•Language•Content•Knowledge Checks•Assessment Questions


Product/Process Flow:


1• Lead SME assigned 1 or more content areas

2• Where overlapping units are identified within main content areas, AFDO will forward these units to

Primary SME

3• Where there is overlap in other Gen Ed content areas (i.e., allergens shows up somewhere else), SMEs

for other content area will have their module (allergens) forwarded to the Primary SME for review

4• Lead SMEs are responsible for completing the storyboard for their course, but they will also be

reviewing overlapping modules submitted by SMEs in other content areas

5• Lead SMEs to forward DRAFT content area storyboards to AFDO

• Finished DRAFT content area storyboards will then be forwarded to FDA for review/comments

6• Storyboards in need of editing (per FDA review) to be forwarded back to Primary SME for revisions

• Revisions submitted back to AFDO within established timeframe

7• AFDO to submit FINAL content area storyboards to FDA

Project Deadlines/Due Date:

•December 15, 2016: Deep Dive to AFDO

• January 6, 2017: Draft due to AFDO

•February 17, 2017: Final revision to AFDO

•April 7, 2017: Handoff to FDA


SME Expectations:• Adhere to Established Timelines

• Attend Face to Face Meetings as necessary

• Participate in SME Conference Calls

• Deep dive into content area to ensure content aligns with course objectives

• Follow Established Formats/Templates/Content Flow for Project

• Frequent Communication with Project Manager & Project Coordinator

• Ensure that information for your assigned content area(s) is current and up-to-date (may require some research).

• Follow AFDO guidelines for timesheets and travel


SME Expectations—In Short:

•Significant Short-term Commitment•Time Investment•40 hours minimum per SME, per content area


AFDO Logistics

•Timesheets

•Travel/Expense Reports

•Project Working Time Compensation

•IT Needs

•Questions???
