t
Program analysis including expected learning outcomes and content analysis
Context analysis - primarily learner and organizational context analysis
Business requirements analysis – geographical distribution of learners, infrastructure and other issues
Decide on the various online learning approaches to be adopted
Platforms, tools and courses to be developed
Consult with stakeholders and achieve consensus
Develop Requirements Specifications for various components that need to be created – software tools/platforms, LMS, courses, etc.
Identify components that need to be acquired and those that need development
Detailed plans for execution and integration of various aspects of the solution
