Parts making a whole

Received the first draft of the filmed scenarios.
The product really comes to life with them in it.

Certainly coming together now.  Activities, Tasks, Quizzes and Videos have started to come together(still gaps to fill).

The Filming

Just completed five filming days over the past three weeks. 
Scenarios are now filmed (editing to be done).

Here's a few images from the days
 

Revisions

Of course, revision, revision, revision.

Discovery of additional material required

• Need to look at difficulties between agencies

• Difficulties experienced
• Falling through the cracks
• Practitioner viewpoint
• Come up with some from MH side
• Include something on supervision, client negotiation, confidentiality and limitations.
• Highlight in resource individual's at different stages for different substances.

Time flys

We have now had several meeting and uncountable email correspondence.

To date we have now agreed on the key points for inclusion.

Developed some ideas on tasks, activities and quizzes.

Commenced all the 8 scripts, not complete as yet though we have booked the filming in so they are now a priority to get completed, reviewed and accepted by the group.

Commenced looking at assessment for the product.

The Participants

Having this project cross departments in Queensland Health (Mental Health & Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drugs Services) and having two external bodies assisting in the project requires scheduling, plan and obviously good luck. 
We have managed to organise the reference group and scheduled meetings for the rest of the year.  Now it's just a matter of everyone attending.  :)

170 page guidelines, 12 participants, 1 resource.

The Tasks

Tasks delegated:
Guideline review for content
Scenario development/writing (8 ten minute scenarios) and organise actors, dates and locations.

eLearning platform development
Storyboard development

Learning Objects:
        Quiz development
        Activities development

Everyone's eager to participate and have their jobs to do.

Aim for completion mid-September

The Plan

Towards the end of 2010 Queensland Health will release the Queensland Health Dual Diagnosis Clinical Guidelines that is a comprehensive resource for use by Mental Health and Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drugs Services Clinicians. Brief guide can be seen at http://www.health.qld.gov.au/atod/documents/dual_diagnosis.pdf
This project aims to produce an eLearning resource to compliment the new comprehensive guidelines on their release.

Dual Diagnosis eLearning

At Queensland Centre for Mental Health Learning we have successfully obtained a grant from the Australian Flexible Learning framework. You can view the details of Increase capacity to address Dual Diagnosis project here.
