HRES2401: Employee Learning and Development BOPPPS Lesson Plan

This assignment presents a detailed BOPPPS lesson plan designed for employee training. It begins with a 'Bridge-in' phase to capture attention and establish relevance, followed by clearly defined learning objectives. A 'Pre-assessment' phase gauges existing knowledge, and 'Participatory learning' incorporates presentations, activities, and case studies to engage learners. The plan emphasizes adult learning principles, covering topics such as the importance of adult learning, the principles of Andragogy and the application of ADDIE methodology. A 'Post-assessment' evaluates learning outcomes, and the lesson concludes with a summary and bibliography. The assignment adheres to the BOPPPS model, encompassing all critical stages of effective lesson planning for professional development, and includes relevant resources and time allocations for each section.

Bridge-in  This step is essential to be
carried out as it helps in
breaking the ice
 I will be gaining the
attention of the different
learners in this step.
 I will also be building
motivation for the learners so
that they are essentially
encouraged to perform well.
 I will also establish
relevance whereby I will
introduce them to the basic
topic which the training will
be all about and additionally
provide them with the
handouts and notes
associated with the topic.
 The participants are able
to find out what is in it
for them in the particular
learning and training
program.
 It becomes critically
effective to understand
that, they are able to
match their needs with
the needs of the program.
 The participants can also
understand why their
overall training programs
matter and how it needs
to be carried out by the

Objectives  The outcomes can be
mentioned to be the
objectives of the learning
program. Hence, I as a
trainer, have formulated
certain objectives.
 The first objective of the
training program is that the
various participants will
learn about the overall
concept of Adult learn.
 Secondly the next objective
of the study is to understand
how to adult learn.
 Thirdly, the objective of the
