29 The dissemination
What to do
Create and execute a dissemination plan for your virtual gaming simulation (VGS).
How to do it
When creating an open source VGS, it’s important to keep in mind that it may be used by any facilitator who wishes to implement it. Therefore, to reach a potential audience that may be interested in using the VGS, it is highly recommended that a dissemination plan is developed.
Some of the key aspects to define in your dissemination plan are:
- What your dissemination objectives are.
- Which your target audience is.
- Which media you are going to use to reach your audience.
- Which planification you are going to follow for your dissemination actions.
- Which kind of content you will create to disseminate your VGS.
- Which tools you will use to create and disseminate your content.
- Which responsibilities the members of your team will have.
- How you are going to measure the effectiveness of your plan.
After creating your dissemination plan, it’s important to execute it and analyse its effectiveness to determine if it’s achieving the desired outcomes based on your goals. If necessary, adjustments can be made to adapt the plan for better results.
