Macro Design
- This course is designed for staff that are new to SEND education.
- There is a lack of specialist teachers and TA's in the SEND education sector. Many staff are entering roles without prior understanding of the SEND Code of Practice.
- This course is designed to onboard staff and provide essential training to ensure they can carry out their role.
- The priorities for this course are:
- Safeguarding of students.
- Understanding students needs.
- Curriculum development.
Introduction
The WHO?
Over recent years it has become apparent that recruiting high quality staff to the education sector has become more challenging. In particular the SEND provision has a high turnover of staff and is suffering from retention issues, staff absence and lack of investment.As a result there are the following problems that senior leaders are facing:
- Budgets being drained due to reliance on supply staff.
- Recruitment cost of using agencies and advertising.
- Time allocated to training new employees.
Who?
Here are examples of staff who will need to complete relevant training before working with students.

Stuart
Learner Profile
The WHY?
As an experienced senior leader in a variety of settings, staff turnover has been increasing and reliance on supply staff are in use far more regularily. Senior leaders have minimal time to dedicate to on-boarding new employees, especially agency staff who are not committed to a permanent role at the school.
Why?
The problem
"Over the past year, my school spent all of their budget for supply staff within the first term. Senior staff do not have the time to induct individual staff, therefore we need to look at ways in which training can be completed and assessed in a digital manner to save time and resources."
Induction
Develop a course that will allow new staff to be inducted into the school, including policies, values, key information, and reporting.
Safeguarding
All staff are responsible for the safeguarding of students they work with. To ensure compliance they must have completing safeguarding training.
SEND
All staff must be secure in their knowledge of the SEND Code of Practice. They must also have knowledge of individual students, where to find their EHCP's and how to plan accordingly.
The school need
At entry level, such as supply TA's some have little to no experience of working in education. Ideally Level 1 Safeguarding Training neeeds to be delivered prior to working with students.Refreshers will be needed for all staff regularly.To remain complaint all new staff must show evidence that they have read and understood KCSIE: 2023.Other training on new digital reporting systems will need to be provided to ensure compliance. .

Module Framework
The HOW?
This program will be a formal learning process taking an asynchronus approach.
Courses will need to be completed in staff's own time and during one-day of induction for new staff. This means they need to be clear, concise and interactive to maintain engagement.
Timeline
As well as the course content, learners will have access to additional resources to support their learning. For example downloadable content and notes, podcasts and infographics.
Toolkit
This will be delivered in an asynchronus manner to take into account staff schedules and commitments outside of the workplace.

Commentary
The Who?
The initial stage of planning focussed on learning personas. As this course was designed around those who worked in schools, there were key considerations that had to be taken into account when designing the course.
Flexibility
Goals
Commentary
The Why?
Staff inductions are required in every school, however safeguarding is an element of compliance that all schools need to demonstrate. Business NeedsThese needs were assessed in order to address any gaps in compliance, staffing requirements and budget implications. Identifying the gapStaff entering a new school need to be aware of the specific procedures involved in safeguarding at each school. There is in impact on businesses as supply staff are used and need to be trained in these procedures. There is also the potential that new staff have not worked in a school environment previously, therefore have little to no knowledge of the correct procedures to follow. These insights enabled me to develop a range of learning objectives that would address these issues. Learning ObjectivesI used Blooms Taxonomy to develop my learning outcomes and objectives. The process involved in safeguarding not only requires learning the compliance process required, but staff are expected to put into practice what they have learnt in the classroom. Their knowledge is assessed during the course and will be questioned during observations and PM meetings. Their knowledge demonstrated needs to be beyond the initial "remember and understand" stages and move into the "apply and "anaylse" stages.
Commentary
The What?
In order to address the needs of both learners and the business, the content of the course needed to reference both local and national policies, as we as clearly assess the knowledge learnt. I looked at the whole picture of what would be involved as part of the induction training for new staff and how the module I was developing would fit in with this. SME'sPrior to completing this course, I held the role as AHT and DSL within a school for a number of years. I have recently entered supply teaching and noticed a disparity between the training I have ben offered. Using my own experience I have identified the essential elements of safeguarding training. If I were to apply this to another school, I would consult with tehir DSL and senior team in order to ensure that school specific policies and information were included within the content. Mapping and structureUsing a top down approach and building block structure, I was able to plan the course strcuture with ease. The visual element of this planning, showed how learners could navigate through content, test their knowledge throughout, continue with their learning and complete a final assessment.ContentHaving access to my own safeguarding training, I was able to identify required content and adjust this to need needs of a SEND school. Using the DLI template I mapped out this content and how it woud fit within the bigger picture of induction training, This enabled me to move onto the next section with confidence and a plan in place for the detailed topics within this module.
Commentary
The How?
This part of the course allowed me to understand the learning flow in more detail and reflect on the learning preferences of the staff that woudl be completing these courses. Due to the limitations of the business and time allocated to training enw staff, I chose an asynchronus approach and developed the idea of independent learning throughout. Whilst staff would still have access to SME's in their workplace, all course content and flow would allow them to complete the topics with little input from others. A number of modules would be developed and planned, using a range of learning blocks containing topic content and assessment, These bite size chunks allowed for engagement and feedback of learners without the input of others. I incorprated a range of activites and multimedia to deliver content and maintain engagement further. This course combined both the linear and core and spoke model. The linear nature of each module allows for ease of learning, a clear path to follow and supports those with minimal knowledge of safeguarding. The core and spoke model allows users to access other modules and gain more indepth knowledge of the children they will be working with and the school expectations. I have chosen to focus on the Safeguarding module to design and develop further as this is the content within my course that rewuires compliance and completion before working with children in schools. All other modules could then be designed and completed at a later date.

Index
Introduction - Micro Design and Development
Part 2 includes detailed design and development planning for Module 1 of the SEND school induction and training programme. The content covers compliance and legislation regarding safeguarding and children and young adults.
The chosen format for this course will be Artciluate 360, allowing asynchronus movement throughout the module in a linear manner. This ensures that all content in covered in depth, with on-screen text, voiceovers and links to relevant documents and policies.
Scoping
- Recognise the difference between safeguarding and child protection and why they are important.
- Identify key legislation and the statutory framework which underpin safeguarding practice.
- Recognise and describe the different types of child maltreatment.
- Identify things that make some children particularly vulnerable.
- Recognise and respond to concerns and possible signs of child maltreatment.
Learning Objectives
Due to the importance of safeguarding, real life examples will be included to link theoretical knowledge to high profile safeguarding cases. Situational tasks and knowledge will need to be applied to show understanding .
Content
With reference to learner personas, there are a broad range of employees who will need to access the training in this module. This module needs to cater to those with no prior knowledge of safeguarding, ensuring it is relevant, engaging and concise. This will also provide a refresher for experienced staff, including updates on KCSIE and key terminology.
Target Audience
Process
Content will need to be sourced and quality assured by a Safeguarding Professional to ensure it meets the requirements for the statutory training required when working with children and young adults.

Implementation
Part 3
The school will use iSpringLearn to roll out the e-learning course. iSpring is a cloud based platform that allows for a range of courses to be hosted online and be built with ease.
Roll Out Plan
Advantages
Considerations
Benefits
ISpring has a range of tools built into it, to allow for course to be developed and hosted with ease on the school platform. Whilst I will be building the course and hosting via SCORM with Articulate 360, further modules can be devoloped using the integrated authoring tool. The training manager can seek support form subject specialist SME's within the organisation to develop specific training suitable for the Trust schools.
iSpring
Staff and resources
- For the purpose of this course, advice and support would be sought from the school DSL to ensure that the content is correct.
- The Trust Training Lead would act as Project Manager and Administrator.
- The DSL as SME.
- The HT of each school as key reporting subject.
Safeguarding Course
Staffing
In accordance with the rollout plan, once the course has been trialled by senior staff and administrators, feedback and adjustments will be made. It will then be rolle out across the whole staff team to trial. New staff to the school will then we added as necessary.
Final Roll Out
The DSL and Trust Training lead will guide learners through the software to begin with so they understand the layout of iSpring. As iSpring will run on its own once the course is opened little support should be needed. There is a link to get help on the course.
Training and Support
Initially senior leaders within the school will trial the course and provide feedback to ensure that it meets the needs of the school. There are 6 staff trialling this.
Soft Launch
Launch Plan
Provide endorsments
- Use feedback from staff who have completed the course previously.
- Use key staff members to lead the training, intriduce its benefits and be the face of the training both via introductory videos and face to face eg, DSL and HT.
- Use school communication channels such as Teams and email to promote the course.
- Promote other course through incentivisation.
- Know your audience and refer to your learners’ personas.
- Make sure you are clear on your programme goals, then set these out.
- Create a marketing plan.
- Get feedback from your staff members.
- Ask for endorsements from past learners.
- Use social channels, ideally within the learning platform.
- Give away some free materials to incentivise your learners.
- Give previews and sneak previews to your learners. (Digital Learning Institute, 2024)
Marketing
Engagement and Personalisation
pass
85%
Throughout this course quizzes and assessments are built into each topic. This allows the user to identify their areas for improvement and also ensure that the course is completed to a specific standard. A pass rate of 85% or above must be achieved. Within iSpring when courses are complete, users recieve a badge to show their progress and accumulate points as they complete more courses. This is visible on a leaderboard, so creates a competitive edge for users.
Gamification
As this course is a statutory requirement for those working with children it is essential that it is completed. Therefore nudging techniques are reuired and deadlines provided to staff to ensure they are compliant. Strategies that I will use:
- iSpring sends out automatic reminders for the completion of the course via email.
- DSL responsible for safeguarding can speak with staff members to remind them of their requirements.
- Updates on leaderboard badges remind staff to complete more courses and adds competitive element.
When there are winners, there may also be losers who disengage. Not everyone is happy to join the games. Nudging is sending gentle pushes to your learners to ensure they get back to learning or submit an assignment etc. Remember that a nudge can be visual: Do not nudge your learners to do chunks of work at one time, aim at micro learning. Start small, plan for a couple of minutes a week. Curate or create content that will be interesting and motivating. You can combine nudging with gamification and allocate badges or points. (Digital Learning Institute, 2024)
Nudging
Reflective Commentary
Having designed a umber of course before, I was familiar with some of the terms and processes involved in the rollout of a course. However, the detail required was formalised and my understanding of the processes is now far more clear. Having recently joined a new company, I found that they used iSpring to host all of their training. I found that this was an easy to access LMS system with a variety of ways that SCORM files and other sources could be incorporated.

The UXDL Honeycomb starts by asking how to create valuable learning experiences with content. Why start here? Because content is time-consuming and expensive to produce. And, well-designed content can significantly facilitate learning. Each cell in the honeycomb surfaces evidence-based principles that will help you create content that is useful, desirable, accessible, credible, and intuitive (findable & usable). User experience research indicates that undergraduate students value online learning experiences that are aligned with UXDL principles (Troop, White, Wilson, & Zeni, 2020).
In order to evaluate the UX design I will be using the CEL UXDL Honeycomb Model, developed by the University of Waterloo. This was inspired by Peter Morville’s UX Honeycomb.

Elements
Affect represents a crucial element to the learning process, and learners differ markedly in what sparks their motivation and enthusiasm for learning. Learners must be able to bring their authentic selves to the learning environment and find connections to what matters most in their lives. The UDL framework emphasizes the idea of learner variability, and learners’ multiple and intersecting identities are an essential layer of fully recognizing the notion of learner variability. While we emphasize dimensions of identity as a part of variability in this section on Multiple Means of Engagement, the essential role identity plays in learning is woven across all three UDL principles. Further, learners' interests and sources of motivation may vary depending on the context. Some learners may be highly engaged by spontaneity and novelty while others are disengaged, even frightened, by those aspects, preferring strict routine. Some learners might like to work alone, while others prefer to work with their peers. And, these preferences might vary from week to week or even day to day. In reality, there is not one means of engagement that will be optimal for all learners in all contexts; multiple options for engagement are essential.https://udlguidelines.cast.org/engagement/

Learners differ in the ways they perceive and make meaning of information. For example, those with sensory disabilities (e.g., blindness or deafness), learning disabilities (e.g., dyslexia), and those representing diverse or non-dominant cultures and/or languages all approach content differently. And these differing approaches must be honored and valued. Equally important is the consideration of how people, cultures, individual and collective identities, perspectives, and ways of knowing are represented within the content. Learning, and transfer of learning, occurs when multiple representations and perspectives are used, because they support learners to make connections within, as well as between, concepts. In short, there is not one means of representation that will be optimal for every learner; providing options for representation is essential.https://udlguidelines.cast.org/representation/

Representation
Many interactive pieces of educational software similarly provide only limited means of navigation or interaction (e.g., using a mouse or keyboard). More broadly, the physical design of the learning space can also be restrictive (e.g. narrow aisles, inflexible seating and table arrangements, inflexible height of a whiteboard, etc.). Navigation and interaction in those limited ways will raise barriers for some learners—for example, learners with physical disabilities, blindness, dysgraphia, or those who need various executive functioning supports. It is important to design materials and physical environments that support and value the interaction needs and preferences of every learner. Intentionally designed curricular materials provide a seamless interface with common assistive and accessible technologies through which everyone, including individuals with disabilities, can navigate and express what they know. These tools allow navigation or interaction with a single switch, through voice-activated switches, expanded keyboards, and others. And intentionally designed physical learning environments provide the options and flexibility in the physical environment to support the interaction and navigation necessary to engage in the learning process.https://udlguidelines.cast.org/action-expression/interaction/

Reflective commentary
The evaluation has been a productive and worthwhile process to allow me to understand the requirements of a digital learning course. I feel that in future I would be able to understand the whole process and plan my course far more effectively and efficiently, had I known what I know now. I intially looked at Kirkpatrick's model in order to look at each stage of the learning process and evaluate it against the course. I established at each level what I would be looking for in terms of success and whether this had been achieved. I then moved on to complete a level 1 checklist to establish how I would collect analytic data that I would use to make my assessment of the course. This included surveys and iSpring course data.

Using the UDL checklist provided by DLI I highlighted where my course met the requirements. It was enlightening to see that there were many more opportunities for learning and assessment throughout my course that I had not considered prior to this. I feel that if I had known thsi prior to planning the course I would have structured it differently and allowed for a wider variety of opportunities to try new techniques. I think out of all the areas, I could have added more into the angagement of the course. I would suggest that using iSpring I would be able to build in opportunities to network and learn socially. I could use the calendar to timetable and allocate courses to users and provide feedback in more than one way.
Learners enjoyed being able to access a range of resources with multimedia content that were engaging and informative.

Why children may not make a disclosure? Telling someone about abuse is very hard for children. The sad news is that children often don’t tell anyone when they’ve been abused. But the good news is that when they do tell, they almost never lie about it. There are many reasons why children don’t tell anyone about sexual abuse. Some common reasons are:
- They have been taught to obey adults.
- They have promised to keep the abuse secret.
- They have been bribed to keep it a secret.
- They have been threatened by the offender to keep it a secret and are scared to tell.
- They feel guilty because they believe that the abuse is their fault.
- They are ashamed to tell.
- They are confused because the offender is someone they know and trust.
- They have been convinced that the abuse is normal or okay.
- They are too young to know that the abuse isn’t appropriate—especially if it’s done by someone they know and trust.
- They have not been taught that the abuse is not okay.

How to respond to a disclosure.If a child makes a disclusre it is important to do the following:ListenListen to what is being said without displaying shock or disbelief. A common reaction to news as unpleasant and shocking as child abuse is denial. However, if you display denial to a child, or show shock or disgust at what they are saying, the child may be afraid to continue and will shut down.ReassureReassure the child, but only so far as is honest and reliable. Don’t make promises that you can’t be sure to keep, e.g. "everything will be all right now". Reassure the child that they did nothing wrong and that you take what is said seriously. Don’t promise confidentiality – never agree to keep secrets. You have a duty to report yourconcerns. Tell the child that you will need to tell some people, but only those whose job it is to protect children.React:Listen quietly, carefully and patiently. Do not assume anything – don’t speculate or jump to conclusions. Do not investigate, interrogate or decide if the child is telling the truth. Remember that an allegation of child abuse may lead to a criminal investigation, so don’t do anything that may jeopardise a policeinvestigation. Let the child explain to you in his or her own words what happened, but don’t ask leading questions. Do ask open questions like "Is there anything else that you want to tell me?"

By developing a microplan I was able to work my way through the wireframe, screen planning and storyboard. I used my prior knowledge and access other safeguarding courses to ensure that all the content was covered and planning in detail to ensure compliance.
- Screen plan allowed for content to be planned in and possible interactive elements to be considered prior to development of the prototype.
- Storyboard included all information for each page of the course and allowed me to strategically plan content prior to using Rise 360 to develop the course.
- The wireframe allowed me to view all the course in its entirity prior to further development and adjust the flow accordingly to allow users to get the best experience.

Welcome to sharing information.After a disclosure has been made, it is important that records are kept and information is shared with the relevant safeguarding professionals. Information must remain confidential and only be shared with safeguarding staff. The use of CPOMS makes concerns confidential, as only relevant staff will be informed.

Sharing information.After a disclosure has been made, it is important that records are kept and information is shared with the relevant safeguarding professionals. Information must remain confidential and only be shared with safeguarding staff. The use of CPOMS makes concerns confidential, as only relevant staff will be informed.

I used a range of resources available to me in the toolkits provided by DLI. This included references from Module 10 and downloadable toolkits. I completed the Roll Out Plan and adjusted it to the needs of the school, helping me understand the needs of the business and meeting all the points on the checklist. I was able to use iSpring tutorials and thier support to guide me through the process of uploading SCORM files and setting up a course.

The course needed to align with learner and organisational goals. This would enable workers to be confident in their approach to safeguarding and understand the process involved when reporting concerns.
Goals
- Compliance when working with children.
- Knowledge of key processes
- Key staff members and policies.
Navigation
I found that whilst Rise 360 had the appearance and ease of use I required, there were limitations with the navigation through sections. I used the continue button to move between sections, however there was no option to go back. This is because you could simple scroll back through sections as they appeared on page as you complated them in a linear format.
- I found that you could not lock assessments as I had orginally planned and it was not possible to gather assessment data.
- I am aware that iSpring allows courses to be developed within the software, therefore if I had access to this, I would transfer my course content through tehir own course builder. This would allow me to obtain information on assessments and completion rates.
- Customisation of courses and company home page.
- Users can be allocated courses to complete easily.
- Analysis and evaluation is integral and reports can be produced to show progress of staff.
- Can be accessed via computer, tablet or mobile phone to allow for easy completion by staff.
Benefits
- A wide range of resources can be uploaded and utilised on iSpring including presentations (PPT), courses (SCORM), video tutorials (FLV, MP4), Flash clips (SWF) and audio tracks (MP3, WAV), as well as supplementary documents (PDF, DOC, XLS).
- Navigation panel helps to quickly find what you need.
- A range of spaces to host information.
- How to move forward and backwards throughout the screens.
- How to use the index to move through scfreens.

I chose iSpring as I was impressed by the training I had recieved at my new employer. I was given administrative access so that I coudl manage courses that I was running as part of my role. I foudn that iSpring offered everything that would be needed for a school Trust. It would improve what was being offered and could be customised to the Trust. It also ensures that every school within the Trust would recieve the same quality training. This ruled out opportunities for inconsistencies, especially as the course was part of compliance training for staff.

I have found during my career that most schools have annual safeguarding training run by the DSL. During my time as DSL, I have found that a lot of my time has been taken up inducting new staff and completing their training for them. With staff turnover being high in some schools, this was a considerable amount of time. I found that my investing in a LMS system that could allow users to complete training in their own time, would be an effective way to train staff. Content could be amended as required and tracked in order to show compliance.

Conclusion
By building this module on Rise 360 I have a far clearer awareness of the amount of work that needs to go into designing and planning the course, prior to development of a prototype. There is a significant investment in the content required for this course, which has made me far more understanding of the time commitment required. Having prior knowledge of the software you will be using, allows you to plan more effectively and avoids the need to make amendments to your planning after course development. By having understanding of evaluation procedures, this too can improve time management and the need to made changes to the planning and prototype. I valued the opportunity to use AI to create images and use hyperlinks and embedded videos to help explain the content of the course in more detail. This was a useful process when improving engagement and time saving.

What was going on? What was happening at the time? Who was around? Why that time?’Reporting - Do you have to share this information? Does it have to be done immediately? You may only know this by understanding your individual policies and procedures, in terms of escalating safeguarding concerns.

UXDL Honeycomb Model
Using Peter Morville’s UX Honeycomb, I was able to establish if the UXDL design met users needs. This was a detailed process that helped me check that my course was accisible to users and provided valuable learning opportunities. This was particularily interesting as I have designed courses in the past and used my knowledge of teaching, learning and assessment to evaluate them, but this took it to a new level. I think this is invaluable in providing me with the information I need to develop a course.
UDL Design Principles
The UDL design principles I learnt within the DLI course, gave me an insight into how I could plan accessibility and engagement into my course. I found that the limitations of Rise 360 limited the interactivity that I could include in the course and design aspects. Again using Storyline may allow me to develop these further and include more elemtns that would limit cognitive overload and increase engagement.It was only when I completed my evaluation, did I realise that I could have taken the opportunity to use these principles when planning the course at its initial stages.

Learning Analytics
Gathering a range of data from users, especially in a formal setting, would allow me to obtain a detailed breakdown of the users learning experience and allow me to better improve the courses I develop in future. Using the UDL checklist, allowed me to think about gathering data on user performance, providing rubrics and different feedback. I feel that by using a system such as ISpring I would be able to collate data efficiently and use this in the reporting process, It would also allow me to easily access learner records and ensure compliance. Especially within a school environment, time is limited as training forms such a small aspect of the role. This data would allow processes and training to be streamlined, freeing up senior leaders to work on other tasks.

Structure
The design of my course was based around learner experiences, prior learning and exemplar courses. I used DLI's information on instructional design, planning a hook, objectives, ease of navigation and transition and assessments as part of the activation.
- I broke the module down into 5 relevant topics that could be accessed and revisited as necessary. I have learnt throughout my career that learning is most effective in small chunks, therefore allowing learners to navigate through each topic at their own pace and allowing the opportunity to take a break between each topic is essential.
- I chose to include a number of opportunities for assessment to test knowledge throughout and at the end of each topic.
Prototype
I chose to use Rise 360 to develop my course as I found that safeguarding information is very text heavy, however it allowed me to embed interactive elements and build quizzes into the course. The professional templates had a corportae approach which I found best suited the type of course I was building.I tried to incorporate lots of its features into my course, to allow me to gain further knowledge of the software.
- As I had already planned the content for the course, building the course using Rise 360 was extremely simple. I used the online guides to help me thoughout the process.
- I found, however that there were limitations to Rise 360 in regards to the quizzes so I had to alter my approach and go back and edit my initial storyboard on occassion.
- I was able to record myself seperately for each section, which I found very useful and this could be done straight through my laptop without other software.
- Did you design and develop a learning experience that is easy to navigate?
- Is it easy to access all materials?

Staff within schools sometimes have limited time to access courses and fit them around their teaching commitments in their PPA time. Due to the course structure being asynchronus, staff can pick up the course as and when they have time and can revisit sections as necessary.
Asynchronus approach
- Course can be accessed at and time and in any location.
- All information is provided in the course and held on iSpring, so can be visited and completed over a number of sessions.

I have valued this process and now understand the role of a digital learning designer in more detail. It has been important to recognise the need for SME's and specialists throughout the process. It has made me aware that I need to understand the full development process, to know whether or not the content I have designed is possible when translating this into software such as Articulate 360. In particular knowing how courses are evaluated, would have been far more beneficial in the intial stages as I could have planned in more detail. I however left these units until after I had completed my prototype. I feel that my course meets the needs of the business, however I would need to ensure this could be rolled out and hosted by an approriate platform that allowed me to gather data effectively and use this as part of the evaluation process. This would allow adjustments to be made to courses and relevant updates to be made as necessary.
Conclusion
- Voiceover recaps the main points for the topic, including key responsibilties and references to legislation that education workers need to be aware of.
- Bullet points and imagery are shown on screen highlighting these.
- On completing a final assessment will appear and will have to be passed before moving on to the next topic.
