Note that this module also serves as Module 2 for participants attending the Blended Learning DRP-5000 course [BL-DR-5].

Sequence of A Typical Walkthrough of Each Phase

A typical walkthrough of a phase consists of the following:

1. Pre-reading [Maximum of half hour]
2. Download and Complete template [Maximum of one hour]
   
   • Supported by Guidance Notes
     
     
3. Attend a Facilitated Online Workshop [Maximum of one hour]

The detailed content of the course can be found by clicking the "Course Content" button on right.

Pre-readings assigned are 2 blog articles. Participants are recommended to complete them before the session as it serves as 'bite-sized' background information, allowing participants to familiarize themselves with the concepts to be discussed.  It would also assist participants in the completion of their assignment in the following 1 hour online session.

Once the schedule for the specific phase is confirmed, you will be notified to proceed to download the template and have your first attempt at completing the specific phase template.
