Online Learning Prior to Onsite Training

Abstract

Creating online courses in conjunction with onsite or face-to- face training involves many detailed considerations. It will be proven that administrators who construct on-line courses and support onsite applications training must take into consideration both didactic and clinical learning objectives to develop a high-quality course that best serves the technologist and provides consistent information about the equipment. The role of a radiographer will be reviewed, outlining professional expectations to better construct pre-work courses. Some aspects for the instructor to consider include course design, method of content delivery, assessment, benefits of online learning, ADA accessibility, legal requirements and technological requirements when creating the online pre-work courses. This paper examines the significance of blended learning along with the benefits to creating online courses prior to onsite GE Computed Tomography (CT) applications training.
