THE WORKSHOP PROCESS MODELTHE WORKSHOP PROCESS MODEL
1. Arranging Logistics
2. Presentation & forms
3. IDD Generation
4. IDD Review
Take advise on the venue and date of workshop from the Head
of the department
Send out invitation mails to individual faculty and student groups in the department
Send reminder mails to faculty & students on the eve of the workshop
Create 2 types of forms for faculty and Students
Faculty form : i) Concept details, in brief
ii) Email ID of the TA/RA/RS/PS of the concerned faculty who can later be contacted to fill up the IDD template.
(b) Student form: i)Asked to explain the concept in some detail.
ii) Asked to visualize the animation stepwise as far as possible while filling up the forms.
1. Arranging Logistics
Explain through a presentation, what is expeced from faculty
and students.
Show already made UG level animations to set a benchmark to aim at.
Distribute Instructional Design Document forms to students.
Distribute Concept Definition forms to faculty.
Show examples of both types of already filled forms on screen.
Provide tea & snacks to dispell an exam environment & create a cozy one, where students can discuss and come up with good ideas.
Wherever possible, arrange for textbooks from the departmental Library.
2. Presentation & Forms
IDD forms where the concept has been relatively well explained
through images are selected.
Web search is then done to check animations on these selected concepts, not already available in open source.
Finally, proposers of selected concepts are mailed the Instructional Design Document [IDD] template for filling up.
An example of a filled template is also sent.
For faculty given concepts, their referred students are mailed the concept with the details (given to us by the faculty) and the IDD template.
A timeline of a week is given for submissions.
Until the IDD is obtained, reminder mails are sent periodically.
3. IDD Generation
The course instructor for the particular topic is contacted for IDD review.
A review form has been designed for the purpose, which is mailed to
faculty alongwith the IDD.
In case of confusion, reviewer is personally explained his expected role.
Review reports are mailed back to the proposers.
Once approved, the IDD is uploaded at Project OSCAR website.
The concept proposer is awarded an honorarium of Rs.1000/- .

D. Domain Reviewer ModelD. Domain Reviewer Model
THE PROCESSTHE PROCESS
Review process proving to be time consuming
Hence, “Domain Reviewer” model proposed.
Herein, faculty takes care of the review stage of all IDDs submitted
in his/her domain.
Work of getting the concepts & IDDs still done by us.
Faculty will be paid honorarium on a per-review basis.
This model already being tried out in Physics
Review process time length has considerably shortened.
How did workshop processHow did workshop process evolve?evolve?
Questions creating confusions replaced in the second version.
Head of Departmentwas consulted for venue and time of the workshop.
How we changed?
Some questions were confusing for the student
Not getting the venue exclusivelyfor our workshop
Result
Better understanding of what is wanted from proposers
2. Feedback taken from students about the IDD form.
Better turnout of faculty.
1. An individual faculty consulted for the venue and time in ME.

Reviewers were unsure of what & how to judge.
Hence, reviewer form designed to the satisfaction
of reviewers.
MODELS TO BE TRIEDMODELS TO BE TRIED
A. OUTSOURCING : TENDER MODEL
Inspite of good faculty response, IDD generation taking long time.
Process of the students filling up IDD had to be changed.
Outsourcing the IDD filling up process for a given concept was mooted.
Tendering process is underway for the generation of IDDs and the subsequent development of animations.
MODELS TO BE TRIEDMODELS TO BE TRIED
B: DOMAIN OWNER MODEL
Generating sizeable number of IDDs from TA/RS of faculty taking 1 month on an average.
To meet our timeline, idea of Domain owner model suggested.
Herein, a faculty takes charge of generating at least 50 approved IDDs from his/her domain within a timeframe (i.e. IDD generation + review).
The financial incentive planned to be in terms of equipment, consummables & manpower salary.
MODELS TO BE TRIEDMODELS TO BE TRIED
C. INDIVIDUAL FACULTY PARTICIPATION MODEL
Getting the IDDs from TAs proving to be very time consuming.
To overcome the TA bottleneck,concept explanations from the faculty are being recorded verbally. Aim to convert them to IDDs by employing someone from that domain to play the role envisaged for TAs. IDDs are then expected to be generated within our timeline.
