Abstract: Converting a technical training class such as basic mass metrology to a computer-based training (CBT) product could be a daunting task. Most CBT developers follow the instructional systems development process as a guide to creating a product that meets the needs of the student population. Its a systematic approach based on a 5-step building process: analyze, design, develop, implement, and evaluate. Although not foolproof, the approach fosters discussions and reviews at critical points in the development of the training. Early discussions focus on understanding the overall objective of the training, the complexity of the content, and the availability of existing documentation and subject matter expertise. As development continues, specific, measurable learning objectives are defined as well as the content that supports those objectives. As progress continues, presentation style, media elements (graphics, narration, video), and interactivities must be selected, designed, and developed in accordance with the content and learning objectives. Finally, the training package is assembled, reviewed, implemented, and evaluated. This paper will review the 5-step process, explain the activities associated with each step, highlight typical questions and issues, and illustrate example content delivery techniques.
