Program: A Moodle Implementation by Will Dozier
Over the last few years we have seen demonstrations of the features of Moodle in various ISPI presentations. But we have yet to see an actual implementation of course in Moodle.
Will Dozier will demonstrate the second iteration of the Department of Defense (DoD) New Supervisors Course. Agencies are required to provide new supervisors with training within one year of their appointment as a supervisor. This course is a blended learning solution designed to help all the components of the DoD to meet that requirement. The course consists of approximately 40 hours of online instruction conducted via Moodle over a three week period and one week of resident training held at DoD’s Executive Management Training Center (EMTC) in Southbridge, MA. We will take a tour of the live course, discuss the development process, and focus on lessons learned - including problems Will has not yet solved!
Will Dozier is a Senior Instructional Designer with FPMI’s Federal Management Institute, where he currently manages all of FPMI’s off-the-shelf training courses. He has designed and developed numerous courses for the military and various federal agencies and won the 2006 National Institute for Packaging, Handling and Logistics Engineers Design Competition for Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) Packaging Courseware. Will has a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and an M.A. in Adult and Higher Education
