A technical and media specifications analysis should identify the technical, graphical, and media-based requirements and constraints to assure eLearning delivery is compatible with the hardware and software requirements of the stakeholder’s learning base. Graphic look, feel, and specifications should be identified. Requirements should be mapped into courseware development. Summaries for technical and media specifications should be submitted. Data collected at this stage should:
- Identify infrastructure capabilities for courseware delivery
- Identify requirements for optimal delivery media
- Identify stakeholder standards for text, graphics, media, and branding
Risks if not conducted or conducted improperly:
- Graphics and media that do not meet the standards and satisfaction of the stakeholder
- Incorrect delivery formats
- Product failure due to incompatibility of delivery medium and/or components to the hardware and software requirements of the stakeholder and/or the stakeholder’s customers
- Missed deadlines and extended project plans that do not meet stakeholder expectations
In the end,
all analysis data (organizational, task-KSA, learner, and technical/media specifications) should be used to design a learning solution that:
- Is based on the needs of the organization/department
- Addresses the gap between the required task-KSAs and what’s actually done by the learner on the job
- Is delivered using the appropriate mediums and technologies that map to learner profiles
Enough with
Analysis. We move to the
Design phase next.
