1 Analyze a Task Akita Roberson ID-5000 v4: Fundamentals of Instructional Design Northcentral University April 26, 2021 2 Task analysis includes paying close attention to a distinct element of work that a person performs in a specific job to understand how the task is performed (Rothwell et al., 2016). To employ task analysis, one must start at the end and work moving to the first step. The purpose of doing this is to ensure learners get the required and necessary skills and knowledge required for their success. At times, people consider task analysis tedious but more enjoyable, especially when comparing a novice's steps and a profession. A task analysis comprises different functions, including inventory, describing and selecting, sequencing, and analyzing tasks. The learning need is a gap between the current level of knowledge and fundamental skills to execute the task (Rothwell et al., 2016). The learning need developed in week two included the owner of Daxter International Company demanding the training to be conducted afresh and differently, unlike before and different issues were to be addressed. His demands were based on pressures that made him make suggestions without thoroughly following the findings of the results. His recommendations could affect the overall effectiveness of the project, which illustrates a gap in his level of knowledge and skills needed for the training project. The task that is being analyzed here is training. Upon finding out that his group of supervisors lacked sufficient skills and knowledge to handle employees and clients, the company owner recommended the training task. Even before the study commenced, a training needs analysis was conducted, and issues that needed attention were addressed. Prerequisite knowledge needed to complete the task includes understanding why the group of supervisors required the training and education since it's easier to realize why the presented aspects are fundamental. Another prerequisite piece of knowledge was understanding the role of the group of supervisors in his company to compare the skills taught and those that supervisors lacked. Knowing what training is and things taught during a training practical was a needed prerequisite knowledge. You'll need to be more specific here. What about the "training" task, specifically? Remember that the task has to be observable. Which were... 1 2 3 Some prerequisite skills required here are communicating and listening abilities that will ensure the training is a success. To complete the task in order, different steps are brought into play, starting with breaking down the task (Brown & Green, 2015). Under this step, the task should be defined, and the study is training a group of supervisors. Task inventory then follows whereby the issues that need addressing are ascertained while setting the duration of attending to each of the identified problems and the speed. A risk asse ...
