ADDIE Instructional Design Model

It promotes consistency and quality by providing instructional designers with a structured, iterative framework. This model ensures a comprehensive and organized approach to creating effective learning experiences.

A Structured Approach to Effective Learning Design ADDIE stands for Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation—five essential steps to creating high-quality training—a systematic instructional design model.

Key Tasks:

• Identify learner needs, gaps in knowledge, and training objectives.

• Conduct audience analysis (demographics, learning styles).

• Define measurable goals for the training.

• Collect data using surveys, interviews, or focus groups to deeply understand the problem before proceeding.

Ask yourself: What is the real issue that this training should solve?

Key Tasks:

• Create learning objectives (what learners need to achieve by the end of the course).

• Plan assessments that align with the learning objectives.

• Develop the structure and content outline for the training.

Backward Design:Begin with the end goal in mind: What should learners be able to do by the end of the training? Build your course backward from those outcomes.Storyboarding:

• Use a storyboard to visually map out the sequence of learning activities and assessments. This ensures smooth content flow and interaction design.

• Storyboards should detail the content, visuals, media, and interactions for each learning segment.

Key Tasks:

• Launch the training course to the target learners.

• Set up the course on a learning management system (LMS) or other delivery platforms.

• Ensure a smooth learner experience by testing the course on various devices and browsers.

• Conduct pilot testing or a soft launch to gather initial feedback before full deployment.

• Prepare technical support or FAQs to address any issues learners might face.

Key Tasks:

• Evaluate the course's effectiveness through learner feedback, performance data, and assessments.

• Use evaluation models to measure how well the training met its objectives.

• Make improvements based on the data gathered to refine future iterations.

• Don’t wait until the end to evaluate—use formative evaluations during development and summative evaluations post-implementation.

Key Tasks:

• Build out the actual content based on the design blueprint (develop eLearning modules, activities, media assets).

• Ensure that all content aligns with the learning objectives and follows the storyboard.

• Test content to ensure it’s functional, accurate, and engaging.

• Stick closely to the storyboard to maintain structure and avoid drifting from the original goals.

• Collaborate with subject matter experts (SMEs) for content accuracy.
