The Profiling Phase includes these questions: What does the learner know? What does the learner need to know? And what way does the learner learn best? The Strategizing Phase includes these questions: What resources do I have? What will constitute the learning journey? Who will do what? The Ascertainment Phase includes these two questions: How do I check that the learner achieved the outcomes? How will I report this?

How do we do that?
