Contents of the 10.03.v4-Introduction to OrthoTraining Course

Welcome to OrthoTraining! This “Introduction to OrthoTraining” is your first course in this unique method of learning. The design of OrthoTraining courses is based on the neuroscience of learning and focused on quick learning of important concepts by the student.

This introduction is a short presentation about how to learn this course and future OrthoTraining courses quickly so that you can recall the important concepts later without “studying” again. Once you have “learned” a presentation, you should have enough knowledge to pass a “Knowledge Quiz” and then “do” what you have learned. When “doing” what you have learned, you will be able to refer to an online step-by-step checklist that will illustrate each step until you can do the procedure quickly, correctly, and with a good result. After you do the procedure consistently a few times, your brain cells will know how to do it automatically, because they have “learned” it.

When you complete this first course, 10.03.v4-Introduction to OrthoTraining, you will be able to:

  1. Navigate quickly through this and all other OrthoTraining presentations manipulating the Modern Learning Platform Player using it to efficiently learn the material.
  2. Prepare yourself for learning. You must be mentally and physically ready to learn efficiently. Otherwise, you will waste your time.
  3. Work with a Mentor who may assign your “Knowledge Profile” or the courses you will take and give you feedback during your learning.
  4. Complete your “Knowledge Profile” courses learning the important content in them so you can later remember this important information when needed.
  5. Use your “Student Dashboard” Report to get feedback about your learning progress in completing your courses and then focus your attention on what you still need to learn more thoroughly. This is not a grade. It is feedback to you so that you are in control of your learning.
  6. Follow the format of this OrthoTraining program so that you can learn all OrthoTraining courses, pass the Knowledge Quizzes, and perform new procedures hands-on efficiently, accurately, and with good results.

So, start now or at a time when you can

  1. Focus your attention and learn quickly.
  2. Click and open the course and download the Course Resources that you will follow when you are learning the presentation. These are at least the
    1. Course script and
    2. Course step-by-step checklist.
  3. Then Click on the link below to start the course presentation which you can view an unlimited number of times until you learn the objectives of the course.
  4. During the presentation, carefully read each embedded quiz question because these questions focus your attention on the objectives of the course.  Think about the correctness of each response from what the presentation has just covered (rather than just clicking an answer) because this “interaction” of thinking and making a choice, is the main way you will learn what you need to know. Carefully read the explanation about the correctness of the response you have chosen. This is important for accurate learning of the material.

Presentation Assignment Instructions

View and learn the presentation "10.03.v4-Introduction to OrthoTraining" as soon as you can. If you have questions, ask your Mentor, or email support@orthotraining.com, or check the FAQs. Once you start the presentation, focus, carefully read, and answer each embedded question correctly, so you learn each objective or important concept. These embedded quiz questions are “teaching/learning” questions because they give you correct feedback. Your responses on these embedded questions are not SCORM tracked.

To complete and “pass” the presentation simply

  1. go to the last slide in the presentation
  2. answer the question on that slide that you have “learned” the content.
  3. Click the “Submit” button,
  4. then click “Finish” and then
  5. type in “Feedback” that you have completed the Presentation Assignment, and then
  6. click Submit at the bottom of the page to Submit the Presentation Assignment.
  7. Click on “Dashboard” to Go to your Student Dashboard Report to confirm that  
  8. you have received a score of 100% for the Presentation Assignment and Passed the presentation.
  9. Your viewing time of the presentation will be recorded on your Student Dashboard. You may view the presentation as many times as you want and only must finish the assignment one time as described above.

Important!

After you have “learned” the presentation, you should rest your brain, let your neurons “process” the new information and make the answers to the embedded quiz questions go into long term memory so you can recall them later. Once you have rested your brain, take the Knowledge Quiz Assignment.

Knowledge Quiz Assignment Instructions

The purpose of the Knowledge Quiz is to measure if you have actually learned the important content so you can remember it in the future. If you have consolidated this learning in your long-term memory, then you should do well on the Knowledge Quiz. These Knowledge Quiz questions are very similar to the embedded quiz questions in the presentation. However, they do not have any correct feedback. Also, you have just two chances to pass the Knowledge Quiz. When you read each question, make your brain recall the correct answer again, making sense, reinforcing your learning one more time so you can remember these important points when you “do” this procedure in practice. Speak with your Mentor if you have restudied and learned the material and need another attempt to pass the presentation.

Hands-on Training and Practice

For many courses you will have hands-on, clinical, or lab training. This is the most important activity for learning because you are using all your brain cells to sensitize neuro synapses and consolidate new memory proteins in your neurons. Hands-on sessions following detailed checklists are critical to learn how to perform a procedure that will be stored in long-term memory. You can have all the knowledge in the world, but if you cannot do a procedure, then the knowledge will be of limited value. The hands-on exercise for this course is viewing and learning the presentation, passing the Knowledge Quiz, and then following the, 10.03.v4-Introduction to OrthoTraining Step-By-Step Checklist, so that you can use this knowledge of this presentation when you learn other OrthoTraining courses.

For courses that have hands-on training, there are links to an online “Steps Checklist” and an online “Quality Checklist” that will help you practice a procedure and evaluate the quality of the result. The final evaluation of your readiness to perform a procedure will be the timing and accuracy of your performance of the Steps Checklist and the quality of the result of your performance. This assessment will be done by your Mentor.
