Assignment
Review the case, "Training in Action 5-2" found on page 191 of the textbook. In this scenario, Dr. Richard Camp designed a three-day workshop on interviewing skills for an executive research firm. In his training design, he incorporated several opportunities to encourage a positive transfer of training. Examine the case, list each of the transfer of training situations created by Dr. Camp, and identify how each of those situations relates to the information in the textbook related to transfer of training.
Research online and find a recent scholarly article of at least 2-3 pages in length that is related to training or instructional design. After reading the article and thinking about how the topic relates to the concepts discussed in Chapter 5, write a 1-page summary report detailing what the article says about training or instructional design. Where possible, incorporate the terminology used in the chapter to summarize the article. Be sure to include a citation including the web site, author, and other reference information in your report.
