11. DESIGN MODEL INCORPORATING YOUR TOOLS

12. The ADDIE Instructional Design Model The ADDIE Instructional Design Model The ADDIE Instructional Design Model The ADDIE (analyze, design, develop, implement, and evaluate) instructional design model is a basic model that holds true for any type of learning, including Web-based (Hall, 1997, p. 81). The ADDIE model is comprised of the following phases: The Analysis phase Who is the audience? What do they need to learn? What is the budget? What are the delivery options? What constraints exist? When is the project due? What will the students do to determine competency (Powers, 1997)?

13. The Design phase Select the most appropriate Web-based environment by examining the kinds of cognitive skills required to achieve your goal (Driscoll, 1998, p. 50). Write the instructional objectives; select an overall approach and the program's look and feel; outline units, lessons, and modules (Hall, 1997, p. 231). Design course content specifically for use with an interactive, electronic medium (Porter, 1997, p. 127).

14. The Development phase Obtain and/or create the required media. Use the Internet's strength to present information in many different multimedia formats so that the learners' preferences can be met (Porter, 1997, p. 196). Determine the appropriate interactions. They should be creative, innovative, and encourage learners to explore further (Porter, 1997, p. 200). Plan activities that allow for student group work to help construct a supportive social environment (Simonson et al, 2000, p. 115).

15. The Implementation phase Duplicate and distribute materials. Install and maintain the course. Be prepared in the event that technical problems occur and discuss alternative plans with the students ahead of time (Simonson et al, 2000, p. 115).

16. The Evaluation phase Test for instructional standards. Test for criterion-related referenced items and also test through evaluation of research papers, class participation, and completion of competency skills (Powers, 1997). Continually evaluate -- relying on one midterm and a final paper puts students at a serious disadvantage (Schrum, 1998). Plan several points during the course when students can provide anonymous feedback so that the instructor is aware of student confusion and misunderstanding (Schrum, 1998). Conduct formative evaluations to improve the course and summative evaluations to judge the effect of the course (Bourne et al, 1997).
