For those involved in online design programs or in the field of design, check out the e-learning design challenge here.

The second eLearning Design Challenge comes from an application that may be familiar to many of you: new employee induction. As part of a complete package, your challenge today is to design an online learning activity that focusses on the importance of punctuality.

Imagine you are working for a national retail grocery chain. New employees are generally between the ages of 17 and 22. For many, it is their first job.

For the purpose of this challenge, you can assume that employee intakes occur every two months coordinated across the country. A computer for online training is provided at all stores, but employees can also access the learning resources from their home computers.Ron informs me that it isn't really contest, but more of a place for like minds to collaborate. The challenge isn't in competition between participants, rather a space for dealing with difficult subject matter and teaching it online.
