The ADDIE Model: Design

Image
The ADDIE Model: Design The ADDIE model consists of five phases: 1. Analysis 2.  D esign 3.  D evelopment 4.  I mplementation 5.  E valuation. Once a designer collects their data, identifies the problem of the preference gap, determines their target audience, and sets clear objectives, all of which are part of the analysis phase of the ADDIE model, it is time to move on to the project's design phase. Check out last week's blog post to learn more about the analysis phase .  In today's blog post, we will focus on the second phase of the ADDIE model, the Design phase. As the name suggests, this phase is intended to outline the plan systematically and specifically for the project. By the end of the phase, the instructional designer will create an instructional guide, address the course format, and determine the assessment type. Let's take a closer look!  Course Format One crucial decision an instructional designer must make during the design phase is how ...

ADDIE Model: Analysis

Image
THE ADDIE MODEL: ANALYSIS The first phase of the ADDIE model is the analysis phase. This phase focuses on pre-planning a project or training by identifying performance gaps that may hinder progress. It involves understanding the target audience, gathering information, and setting clear objectives. Instructional designers use this phase to determine the goals that must be achieved by answering critical questions. The fundamental questions of who, what, when, where, why, and how help designers identify gaps or issues that need to be addressed. These questions are linked to learner characteristics, performance gaps, learning objectives, and assessment strategies and tools. Sample questions may include: - Who is your target audience? - What goals are you trying to achieve? - When will the training be conducted? - Where will the training take place? - Why are we designing this project? - How is information gathered? Once the designer answers these key questions successfully, they can develo...

The ADDIE Process

Image
 The ADDIE Model The ADDIE model, developed in 1975, is a framework commonly used in instructional design. ADDIE stands for "Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation." When executed effectively, each of these five phases builds on the previous one, promoting reflection and continuous improvement for a project or training course. The 5 Phase of The ADDIE Model 1. A nalysis 2. D esign 3. D evelopment 4. I mplementation 5. E valuation  Let's dive into what each phase represents in the ADDIE model.  Phase 1: Analysis The first step in the model, the analysis phase, is designed to address questions related to improving a program or implementing a new strategy for a project. This is the pre-planning for the project you would like to create. It is essential to focus on learner, task, and context analysis. Sample questions to consider include: - What problem requires improvement? - Who is the target audience we want to reach? - What learning gaps exist? - Wh...
