IAAI-CI study plan

Build a one-page study matrix that maps each of the four IAAI-CI domains to your source material, noting which domain you will front-load and why.

Conduct a 30-minute task analysis of one fire-investigation job duty, listing the steps, conditions, and performance standards a learner must meet.

Write 15 learning objectives in ABCD format (Audience, Behavior, Condition, Degree), labeling each by Bloom level and by learning domain (cognitive, affective, psychomotor).

Separate terminal from enabling objectives and sequence them into a six-hour course outline with rough time blocks.

Assemble a complete lesson plan from your Week 1 outline using preparation, presentation, application, and evaluation sections.

Select and justify an instructional method for each objective (lecture, demonstration, small-group problem, case study, hands-on rotation) in one sentence each.

Write instructor notes, a materials/equipment list, and a setup-and-teardown timeline for the lesson.

Embed three check-for-understanding points and one safety note per hands-on segment into the plan body.

Construct a table of specifications that allocates written-test items across objectives in proportion to instructional time.

Draft 20 multiple-choice items, tagging each to an objective and Bloom level and avoiding the common flaws of cueing, negatives, and implausible distractors.

Write a defensible answer key with a one-line rationale per item citing the source.

Calculate item difficulty (p) and discrimination (D) for a sample of five items from hypothetical response data and flag any item needing revision.

Design a three-level performance rubric (unsatisfactory, meets standard, exceeds standard) for one psychomotor skill, with observable criteria and no vague adjectives.

Build a skills checklist that specifies critical (pass/fail) steps versus non-critical steps.

Draft a records procedure covering test security, retention period, access control, and remediation documentation.

Map existing course activities to the four Kirkpatrick evaluation levels and identify one gap to close.

Script a 10-minute opening that states objectives, hooks the learner with a job-relevant scenario, and previews the agenda.

Rehearse a questioning ladder (knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis) and record four questions per level for your topic.

Plan transitions and platform mechanics (positioning, voice, gesture, visual aids, timing cues) for the lesson built in Week 2.

Record a 10-minute microteach and self-score it against a delivery checklist covering clarity, pacing, eye contact, and questioning.

Re-record the microteach at 20 minutes, incorporating three specific revisions from your Week 5 self-score.

Adapt one segment for accessibility and mixed-experience learners, naming the adaptation and the rationale.

Write responses to four classroom-management scenarios (dominant talker, disengaged learner, wrong-answer handling, side conversation) and rehearse each aloud.

Collect structured feedback from one peer or mentor using a five-item observation form and summarize the two highest-priority fixes.

Perform a hazard analysis for one practical evolution, listing hazards, risk controls, and the instructor's supervisory responsibilities.

Outline the elements of instructor negligence and liability in plain language and locate where your lesson plan documents reasonable care.

Write eight ethics scenarios (test integrity, conflict of interest, confidentiality of learner records, favoritism, bias-free language, use of copyrighted material) with a defensible response to each.

Draft a learner-conduct and safety briefing script that you could deliver in under three minutes.

Complete one timed 100-question mixed mock exam under exam conditions and score it by domain.

Build an error log that records, for every missed item, the underlying objective and the specific corrective action.

Re-teach your weakest objective in five minutes and confirm it against your checklist.

Finalize exam-day logistics: scheduling, identification requirements, permitted materials, and a two-pass test-taking strategy.
