Part III: Implementation

Instructional Strategies

Employees will know how to identify stressors- Assign each

person to a group, run through scenarios that might arise
and have each person identify the stressors of the situation.
Employees will know steps to take to eliminate and control
stressors-Once those stressors are identified, the teams will
go through the techniques I showed them to eliminate and
control their stressors. Also they will use what I taught to
help prevent the stressors in the first place.
I will show each technique before the students are divided
into groups. I will take a volunteer and show what
techniques will help with what situations and how they will
learn to not let stressors get to them on the job.
I would use direct instruction for how to identify those
stressors, and some ways to eliminate those stressors. I
would use indirect instruction when they are broken up into
groups. This way they can use my instruction as a guide and
still learn how to identify some on their own.

Formative Assessment

Closure

Materials and Resources

Questions, I will ask random employees questions as well

as answer any questions anyone has for me.
Next will be self and peer assessments, I will hand out a
paper with both assessments on it and have each person
assess not only themselves in the group but also their
group. I will also have done assessments while walking
around each group.
This training is to help and train employees with stressful
jobs how to identify the stressors and how to handle and get
rid of those stressors as well as maintain a calm
appearance when under pressure. It shows them how to
identify, deal, and maintain a stress free environment.
Paper, pens, and handout of different stressors as well as
the handout of self and peer assessments.
