Instructional Design Phases



Instructional Design PhasesKrista JacksonCUR/516April 20, 2015Carrie MillerInstructional Design PhasesEarthy Refresh Preparation: Creating Experts on Making Drinks At Starbucks, our taste and presentation are essential to our customer's refreshment so we will be focusing on our beverages in this training. Starbucks will be implementing a training session to improve drink preparation and presentation. Handouts with ingredients and presentation photographs will be provided for studying. There is a training session on the computers in the back room to complete a multiple choice quiz. Lastly, employees will experience face-to-face training evaluating how successful they are in what they learned. The face-to-face training will give the employees precise learning from the store manager who has been proficiently trained. Our target audience is all of our employees in each of our local community stores. The employees included are baristas, shift leaders, assistant managers, managers, and district managers. Experienced employees will all need to take this course. New hires that have little or no knowledge will benefit, so no prior knowledge required. Ages of employees range from 16 to 65 with male and female employees that work at our stores. Education can be from in high school to college, and we offer a program for college students. Technology skills will only include being able to operate a computer and mouse. The delivery modalities will be handouts, computer training and quizzes, and face-to-face training sessions. The computer training will be available on the two computers in the back of the store with two weeks to complete the course on the computers with the multiple choice quiz. Face-to-face training will be broken up into groups of four employees for each session. The course will be completed in two sessions for each group for two hours. We have set two goals for this training session on refreshing on our beverages. Employees will identify ingredients and the different beverages. Objectives are as followed:Given the Starbucks drink handouts of specific drinks and ingredients, employees will be able to identify both beverages and ingredients with 100% accuracy. Given the Starbucks drink handouts of specific drinks and ingredients, employees will take a multiple choice quiz mastering it with 100% accuracy with their knowledge of the beverages and drinks. Employees will prepare the beverages correctly and look as advertised. Objectives are as followed:Given four total employees in a group, employees will be given thirty minutes to demonstrate mastery of these four tasks: Pulling “perfect” shotsSteaming milk and making “perfect” foamCorrect drizzle technique of caramel or mocha Proper whip cream style and amountGiven an observation by a manager, groups of four employees will prepare five successful beverages in a row, with each one being made correctly and look as advertised to the satisfaction of their knowledgeable and trained manager. The objectives presented are collaborative learning and performance-based learning. Performance-based learning shows how they will have to accumulate more comprehension and techniques and skills to complete the course. While the collaborative learning shows how they will work in groups of four, to watch and learn from each other during the face-to-face part of the course.The strategies and activities will be flyers let the employees know of the training course, handouts to study will be given out, and then computer course will gauge their knowledge gained with a multiple choice quiz. In person, training activities will ensure to demonstrate their abilities to create the specific drinks as illustrated without errors. Employees will get a survey at the end of the course to evaluate the training. The instructional technologies given are a computer course and multiple-choice quiz that will be used at the beginning of the instruction of this course. Particular Starbucks machinery will be used to make the drinks: espresso machines with steaming wands, blenders, coffee grinders, and coffee makers.We will have one week to inform the employees of the new course coming up. The next week they will have a week to look over the handouts. Then they will have two weeks to complete computer multiple choice quiz with 100% accuracy. Lastly, the employees will be given two weeks to face-to-face training, which will be two sessions for two hours for each group/employee.Dates that we will be following for implementing the course:June 1st – 8th: Informing employees verbally and with a flyer that the course is coming up.June 8th – 15th: Employees will look over and study the handouts given to them. Get them ready to take and ace the multiple choice quiz on the computer.June 15th – 29th: Take the computer quiz and complete it with 100% accuracy. June 29th – July 13th: Face-to-face training with the divided up groups.Managers and all employees will be the only individuals required. The resources and materials we will need are: flyers to be created, handouts prepared, new pins ordered for the employees hats or aprons, and the natural work environment (including cups, lids, straws, espresso machines, steaming pitchers, espresso beans, espresso shot glasses, syrups, ice, whip cream, drizzles, and toppings) for the role play activity and face-to-face training. The key details of the plan will be communication of the plan, building interest and commitment to the plan, and selecting participants. Communication of the plan consists of managers talking to all of the shift leaders being informed to tell employees a week before the handouts are given out. Managers will also communicate with all of the employees while working with them. If an employee is not working or absent that week, they will be contacted by phone. Flyers will be posted on the back wall, and put into the employee schedule binder for reminders. While building interest and commitment we will have the flyers be inviting and playful to get the employees excited about learning. The training is on the job, so the employees will be paid, and allowed over time for the training if their hours go over. The employees will have knowledge that this is a required course for the store. The employees will receive a new pin upon completion to add to their collection for their hats or aprons. The training will be taken into consideration during their next review for a raise, and if they have kept up the exceptional work they will get some money added to the standard raise. Selecting participants is easy because all employees in the local stores are required participants in this course. The formative assessment will have four goals in assessing their training. One, the managers will assess how many times it took each employee to pass the multiple choice quiz with 100% accuracy. Two, at the beginning of the training with the manager, each group member will make the same two drinks to start off the training. The drinks will be a Grande Caramel Frappuccino and an Iced Grade Caramel Macchiato. The manager will observe to assess their pre-instruction knowledge. At the end of the course these two beverages will be in the list of five beverages they will have to make correctly in a row. The group members will not see each other’s drink until they are all finished, and the drinks will then be compared to show what is positive and what needs to be worked on with the beverages. Three, managers will observe behavior when assessing drink and ingredient clarification when the manager asks questions during the face-to-face training. Lastly four, in the closure of the face-to-face training, managers will observe the employee's performance when they make five drinks, including the two first ones again, in a row accurately to specifications of the ingredients and presentation.Managers will perform evaluation criteria to meet after the assessment is finished. One, employees will complete an anonymous survey to evaluate how they felt about the training. The employees are encouraged to make notes of ideas to improve the training and changes will be made accordingly. Two, managers will have each employee make a random drink to critique each week for four months to observe and assess if the training helped the situation. Lastly three, managers will observe and write notes for four months assessing each employee on how they are doing on the bar making drinks. How the employees make the drinks with the ingredients, and how they are presenting them to the customer. Managers performing this task will not let the employees aware they are still being assessed, and their performance being observed.The managers will need two main evaluation instruments to conduct the evaluation of the training course. First, the manager needs to create an anonymous survey that needs to be given to the employees after the course is over. The survey should include the attitudes toward the training and if they feel they have improved. There will be a few questions with blank space to allow the employees to write ideas or comments about the training course. Second, the managers need to keep a notebook with them at all times specifically for notes for further evaluation for the next four months.There are a few evaluations this course could bring for the future. First, since the training is a short enough duration that it could be used once a year for employees locally. The handouts of new drinks would have to be made again for current beverages, and a new fun flyer would be preferable. The employees could use the flyer as a creative project to see which flyer wins, and the flyer will get them interactive before the training course begins. Next, the training’s efficacy can make the course mandatory once a year for all of our stores instead of just locally. The training course could also be optional for the employees for a chance at a higher raise when it is time for their evaluation. Then, the same layout could be used for different training courses that employees may need in the future that we observe in local stores. There are always new problems developing that sometimes training is the only way to fix the issues. Next, if the layout and the design are effective, then the organization could look into using the format for different training courses for all of their stores in the future. The store should send their design and evaluation for the company to look over more thoroughly. Lastly, the notebook the manager uses can be used as an example and reference if the organization makes the class mandatory for all of their stores. Making the information into outlines, graphs, and paper with the information collected would be good to include when you send in the design and evaluation.*An outline is attached to the information provided on the next page.Title: Earthy Refresh Preparation: Creating Experts on Making DrinksDescription: At Starbucks our taste and presentation are essential to our customer's refreshment so we will be focusing on our beverages in this training.
