Abstract

CSULA was charged with assisting the NSA (National Security Agency) in the research, development, documentation and the necessary expertise to convert a face-to-face course to a multimedia Web-based course called "EEO 100: Equal Employment Opportunity Law and Diversity Training for Selection Boards." The focus of the work was on ways to encourage interactive learning and the use of motivational strategies online. EEO 100 is directed to employees of the NSA who serve or who may serve on boards, panels, or committees charged with the responsibility of rating workers for selection purposes
