Info

ADDIE is an instructional design framework used by learning designers in the process of creating education and training programs. At our company, we use ADDIE because it provides a systematic and structured approach to designing effective learning experiences, ensuring that content is learner-focused, consistent, and continuously improved through evaluation. Following ADDIE, we are sure that we offer the best quality in all our training materials. ADDIE includes these 5 stages:

ADDIE Model Overview

In this phase you will:

1. Conduct a formative evaluation: Assess the instruction during development to find areas for improvement.
2. Conduct a summative evaluation: Evaluate the instruction after delivery to measure overall effectiveness.
3. Collect data: Gather information on learner performance and satisfaction.
4. Analyze data: Examine collected data to identify strengths and areas for improvement.
5. Report results: Share evaluation findings with stakeholders.
6. Make recommendations: Suggest improvements based on evaluation outcomes.
7. Revise the instruction: Adjust the content to enhance effectiveness.
8. Create a plan for continuous improvement: Develop an ongoing evaluation strategy to maintain instructional quality.

In this phase you will:

1. Develop instructional strategy: Choose the best approach based on audience, content, and environment.
2. Select media and technology: Identify suitable tools for delivering instruction.
3. Create the course outline using backward design. Backward design is an approach where you start by defining learning outcomes, then plan assessments to measure those learning outcomes, and finally design activities to achieve them. This is, we start designing our learning project with the end goal in mind.
4. Plan assessments: Define the types of formative and summative assessments that will align with learning objectives.
5. Create a design document and/or storyboard: We can define a storyboard as a written document that outlines the course content slide by slide, focusing solely on what content will be included in the course. It details how the course will be structured and how the content will flow.
6. Review and revise the design: Get feedback and adjust the design accordingly.

In this phase you will:

• Conduct a formative and a summative evaluation
• Collect and analyze data
• Report results
• Make recommendations
• Revise the instruction

In this phase you will:

1. Create the actual instruction: Develop course materials based on the design blueprint created in the previous stage.
2. Produce multimedia elements: Create videos, animations, graphics and other multimedia elements. You might use authoring tools.
3. Develop assessments: Design formative and summative assessments to measure learner understanding.
4. Develop documentation: Prepare user manuals, training guides, and support materials.

In this phase you need to identify:

• Who is going to receive your training? (Analyze your trainees)
• What will your training be about? (The context of your training)
• When is it going to happen? (Set a time-frame right off the bat)
• Where is it going to happen? (Will you deliver it online or in a classroom?)
• Why are you doing this? (The objectives of your training)
• How are you going to achieve this? (The methodology and the requirements)

In this phase you will:

1. Prepare the learners: Inform the learners about the instruction, its objectives, and what they are expected to achieve.
2. Conduct a pilot test: Deliver the instruction to a small group of learners to test its effectiveness and identify any issues that need to be addressed.
3. Deliver the instruction: Actually deliver the instruction to the learners using the chosen media and technology tools.
4. Monitor the learners: Keep track of the learners' progress and provide feedback and support as needed.
5. Address technical issues: Troubleshoot any technical issues that arise during the delivery of the instruction.
6. Provide ongoing support: Offer continuous support to learners and instructors to ensure they have the necessary resources to succeed.
