To the right is a job aid and connect activity. The video was created by me to show how a simple "dance" can work as a job aid to assist employees in remembering the 6 types of abuse. (Think of the moves like the Marcarena)
This is a connect activity because it engages learners apply what they have learned in the module. Learners will also be able to use this mnemonic to help them remember the 6 types of abuse when quizzed by a state investigator. Learners will be assessed in this activity by being able to engage in the dance and name the 6 types of abuse when asked.
