Mastering ADDIE Model: Effective Instructional Design Process

1. ADDIE Model Ashby Ragsdale INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN

2. The 5 Phases of ADDIE • Analyze • Design • Develop • Implement • Evaluate Instructional Design: ADDIE Model

3. What is the ADDIE Model? • It is not a specific instructional design model but rather a preferred illustration of how people solve an issue in the work place. • It is a means of describing the essential elements of any instructional design model. • Each phase has an outcome that subsequently leads into the next phase. • The originator is unknown; however, many have improved upon this concept through the years.

4. Analysis Phase • During this phase, Analysis is recognized by.. • Determining goals and objectives • Determining what they already know • Who is the audience and what are their characteristics • What types of learning restraints exist • What is the timeline for completion • Determining what they need to learn • Identifying the new behavioral outcomes

5. Design Phase • During this phase, Design is recognized by.. • Brainstorming for determining a course of action that best fits the needs of the audience. • Documentation of the project’s instructional, visual and technical design strategies • Storyboarding • Prototype creation • Tedious nature • Design should be tested often to save time and money

6. Development Phase • During this phase, Development is recognized by.. • Building / creating the outcomes of the design phase. • Initial drafts • Reviews • Re-writes • Testing

7. For larger corporations, the Design phase might include: • Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) • Graphic artists • Technical experts • For e-learning, the Design phase might require additional support for server space as well as technology.

8. Implementation Phase • During this phase, Implementation is varied by the size of the organization; the complexity of the course; and the distribution of materials. • Implementation phase might turn up areas needing re-writing. • Implementation phase requires the training of facilitators as well as the learners. • Pilot programs • Train-the-trainer sessions • Implementation phase is when the project manager ensures that textbooks, equipment, software, hardware, and/or web site are functional.

9. Evaluation Phase • During this phase, Evaluation determines if the goals have been met and knowing what will be required moving forward in order to further the efficiency and success rate of the project. (Educational Technology, p. 1) • There are two types of Evaluation phases: • Formative Evaluation – present in each of the five phases of the ADDIE Model. • Feedback from instructional designers and students • Summative Evaluation – performed at the end of the development process. • Survey Monkey

10. Summary • The ADDIE Model is an acronym for Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement and Evaluate. • Evaluation of a project / course is ongoing. • The Design phase is the brainstorming of ideas for development. • The ADDIE Model has been improved upon by Dick and Carey, etal. (Brown, p. 8)
