As an experienced Approved Driving Instructor (ADI), I know that a lack of confidence around junctions can be a major stumbling block to progress.  Learner drivers often miss a step or complete the routine in the wrong order, leading to potential safety issues for themselves and other road users. 

Problem: Learners not understanding or recalling the MSPSL routine at junctions and therefore driving in a potentially unsafe manner. 

Solution: An explainer video going through each step that can be watched before each lesson as a reminder. 

1: Identify the goal:

Learner drivers use the MSPSL routine accurately and effectively at all junctions.

LO 1: Know the order MSPSL.

LO2: Understand what each step entails.

LO3: Be able to take this into real world situations in order to improve driving skills.

I spent two weeks with 12 different learner drivers, noting down all errors with the basic junction routine of MSPSL.  And as an experienced ADI I felt confident that I could bring my experience to the course design process. 

There are two point I would amend in the next step of the process:

1: AI voices - I would record real people to enable more expression in the narrative.  To do this I would use my Blue Yeti Microphone and Audacity or Garageband to edit.

2: 'What ifs' - it is important for learners to understand the consequences of not following MSPSL so I would add in some  interactive 'what if' scenarios or quizzes.
