Branching Scenario
This scenario is a practice exercise for responding to student resistance for online facilitators. Participants choose how they will respond to statements showing student resistance. How the “students” react depends on the choices made, with photos emphasizing the positive or negative emotional reaction. This practice uses simple branching and was developed in Captivate with visuals developed in PowerPoint and Photoshop.

Scenario-Based Learning
Diversity Stories
For a course on cultural competence and diversity, the concept of Identity Development Models was demonstrated through stories of two individuals, Pamela and Malik. Each person proceeds through the stages of identity development based on events that happen in their lives. The stories provide more emotional impact than abstract descriptions of the model. This scenario was created in Captivate and includes some limited branching. Photos were edited in Photoshop.

Web 2.0 Scenarios
A number of courses I’ve developed use scenario-based activities. These activities pose realistic problems for students to address, allowing them to practice applying skills and making decisions in authentic situations.
One example of this type of activity is a small group assignment from a course teaching Web 2.0 skills to teachers. The scenarios deal with privacy and safety issues concerning students using Web 2.0 tools. Participants in the course use a wiki to collaborate and develop a plan to respond to the issues in the scenario.
