| Method content&nbsp;descriptions can be written using templates.&nbsp; The resulting documents can then be used to
 |
| collaboratively complete the content.
 |
| </p>
 |
| <p>
 |
| This method of method element authoring is appropriate when:
 |
| </p>
 |
| <ul>
 |
| <li>
 |
| A method authoring tool is not being used.
 |
| </li>
 |
| <li>
 |
| There is a need for support for markup and reviews of the content being developed that is not provided in the
 |
| method authoring tool being used.
 |
| </li>
 |
| <li>
 |
| There is a reason not to have each author use the authoring tool directly for authoring the content (for example,
 |
| the desire to not have to train all the SMEs to use the tool before they can provide content).<br />
 |
| </li>
 |
| </ul>
 |
| <p>
 |
| To use templates:
 |
| </p>
 |
| <ul>
 |
| <li>
 |
| Create a template that represents the information you want to capture for each type of method element.
 |
| </li>
 |
| <li>
 |
| Make the templates available to the content authors (e.g., via a customized Method Authoring Method).
 |
| </li>
 |
| <li>
 |
| Complete and review the content for each content element to be authored in this fashion.
 |
| </li>
 |
| <li>
 |
| Once the content has been reviewed and approvide, migrate the content into the the method authoring tool.
 |
| </li>
 |
| </ul><br />
 |
| <p>
 |
| Once the content in the template has been reviewed and is fairly stable, if a method authoring tool is being used, the
 |
| content can be migrated to the tool.
