Using PBL in the Real-World

As a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, I have seen an increased demand for online training. Therefore, I have included an example of a fully asynchronous online nutrition training session that I created that highlights my knowledge of andragogy, adult learning best practices, PBL, and learning transfer techniques for you to get a better picture of how I might assist you with your training needs. This asynchronous approach takes into consideration McClusky's (1963) Theory of Margin, which emphasizes that a person's ability (margin) to take on additional events such as learning is dependent upon the individual's load (personal and social demands) and power (resources that they can depend on).  Therefore, my goal is to help reduce the learner's load by giving them training flexibility through a fully asynchronous format. This training format best meets the needs of my audience to be able at their convenience to participate in training that is short and concise.  Training can be completed in small blocks of time while having a cup of coffee or tea.
