[SOLVED] Task Analysis
Step- I: Select a job to analyze. You may choose a job currently held by a relative, friend, fellow student, etc. (If you completed “Exercise 30: Writing Job Descriptions” in Part 2, you may use that job.) Ask the job holder if you may interview him or her about the position and/or also observe him or her performing the job. Step 2: Obtain a job description for the job you selected or prepare one by interviewing the job holder. The job description should describe in general terms the worker’s major duties and responsibilities. Step 3: This step involves identifying the tasks associated with performing each of the major duties of the job. You are to identify the overt, observable behaviors that are involved in performing the job. Arrange (if possible) to observe the worker performing his or her job and develop a list of the tasks involved. A task listing includes behavioral statements of how the job is to be performed. Step 4: Once you have completed Steps 1-3, answer the following questions and include them in your report: a. What training would benefit a person performing the job? If you had to design a training program for the job, what content areas would be needed, based on your analysis? b. What training method would be best (on-the-job training, seminars, apprenticeships, vestibule, etc.)? Why? Skill
