Below you have an example of an assignment with a task that has the completion type Facilitator approve. Feel free to use this in your own programs, or use it for inspiration when you compose your own assignment.
Different assignments require feedback from different people – sometimes the coach is best suited and sometimes the learner’s peers – in those cases, the facilitator is most fit to provide feedback, the tasks should have the Facilitator approve completion type. The learner's coach also has permission to read the facilitator review. If there are multiple facilitators in the program all of them can participate in the review. After the task has been approved the conversation is still open for learners and facilitators to continue the conversation.
How to use Facilitator approve in your program
Here are a couple of ways you can use the completion type Facilitator approve in your program:
- If the learners got an exercise that they should submit in the program, the submission will be reviewed by the facilitator who will respond with feedback, a passing grade or suggestions for improvement. In this way, the facilitator can give learners feedback and let them know if they’re on the right track. Do you have any documentation that you’re asking your learners to e-mail the facilitator in your programs today – change it into Facilitator approve, the learners can attach files in their comment to the facilitator.
- Let the facilitator check in on the learners before and/or after a session – in this way the facilitator can communicate with the learners and get a picture of what kind of questions they’ll need to clear out in the session, or what performance barriers the learners in the program might need help with.
- If you have a webinar you can have an assignment that asks the learners to do a technical check before the session and enter a comment to the facilitator in the task indicating that they are either 'set up and ready to go' OR describing the issue that they are experiencing.
