Building A Review Course To Prepare For Licensing Exam

Jun 28, 2016

Hi All,

We have a course currently running that helps graduates of a specific type of medical technology program study for their licensing exam.  As part of the process of moving the course to a new LMS I am reviewing it to see what needs to be changed.

Does anyone have experience with a study review course who would be willing to share some of the things they have found effective?  For example, is building a flashcard type presentation been well received?  I am looking for both Storyline options and options using other methodologies so as to mix and match.

Thanks in advance,

Pat

Test first, separating major subject areas into question banks.

Track how each user performs by topic, then refer them to revisit content on those subjects to perform better on the next pass.

No need to have them review everything- just the areas they need help/reinforcement.

It takes a lot of discipline to build it well, but you get amazing results AND DATA from the approach.

So, Stakeholders know what areas folks come in weak, where you filled gaps, what they may need to look out for on the floor.

For deeper question banks- I have a hack I shared at the Tampa Bay Articulate User Group:

Ping me back if you need more help.  I did 14 years in Finance with Federal oversight on compliance training, so I have mucho experience (and success) in this specific type of issue where "tracked achievement" and "optimizing time" are critical.
