project scenario sheet
The chief of a town’s emergency services department would like to institute a new introductory training program for emergency medical technicians. The chief is planning to hire a curriculum design company to create this program. The chief wants the program to cover the following topics:
Safe measures when operating the ambulance
Initial assessment of patient’s condition
CPR and defibrillator operation
Incident report filing
Based on this information, what would be the most effective way to design curriculum for this program? You and your group members, as "employees" of a curriculum design company, will propose your curriculum design ideas to the chief and a number of his constituents in a PowerPoint presentation.

Learning Objectives
Instructional Strategies and Activities (Lucia)
Way material should be presented: The material needs to be presented in a section per topic:
Section 1: Ambulance Operation. This could be initially presented through an interactive online elearning module. As a learner clicks on an image of the ambulance - extra windows can open to demonstrate parts if the ambulance and what their functions are. A simulation activity could be used to walk the user through the safety measures to adopt, with messages appearing of they are doing the correct / incorrect thing.
Section 2: Patient Assessment. Same method as above. An interactive module to explain the theory, followed by a simulation activity.
Section 3: CPR and Defibrillation. An interactive module to explain the theory, followed by a small group session where trainees practice the methods on a dummy.
Section 4: Incident Report. An interactive module to explain the theory, followed by an activity where trainees are presented with a case study and need to complete an incident report. This incident report could incorporate factors related to all of the above sections and serve as a training quiz as well.
In all the above sections, the activities will act as a primary means to learn as the course outcome requires a behavioral change and new skills in the learners. These new skills need to be demonstrated to determine whether the learning was effective or not.
As this is introductory training, the sequence to adopt is an inquiry-related structure which teaches similar ideas together. In this scenario, the content must be organized according to the steps that the technician will take to check the ambulances' safety, assess the patient, conduct CPR and file an incident report. So, each section will be set out per step required to complete the task. e.g. Section 1- Ambulance Operation

Simulation activity
Hi All! I added ny thoughts as to what could be done for the assessment of each participant. I hope that I am on the right track....If I am not, please provide me with your thoughts. Thanks! - Carmela
Section/Module Assessments (Carmela)
Being that each section would have an interactive simulation activity, the assessment could be the very same simulation they used as an exercise however this time the simulation would be asking the participant to select parts of the ambulance, for example. The more parts correctly selected the better to assessment score would be. This sort of assessment could be done after each section followed the the final comprehensive assessment. For the incident reports section, we could provide some sample reports and have them input the missing information or determine what is wrong.
Comprehensive Final Assessment
To truly determine that the participant understood each and every module I think the final comprehensive assessment should be completed with either a seasoned emergency technician or a class facilitator. I am also certain the the facility may have access to an actual ambulance in which the instructor can put the student through a series of tasks to certify them in that area. They can then move onto patient assessments using other classmates and completing the tasks provided by the instructor and so and so on. 8.
