Using the ADDIE Model
_____________________________________________________________Depending on the need you have, you can approach the design of a course in different ways. The TSOnline Center follows an Instructional System Design (ISD) known as the ADDIE model. The ADDIE model, as any other ISD model, does not imply a particular pedagogy of learning theory. ADDIE stands for the five phases that the model suggests: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation.
Following these phases guarantee that you ask the right question when you are planning your course, such as who your students are, what you want them to learn, what activities are more favorable for them to acquire that knowledge/skills, and how will you measure your students learning. When using the ADDIE model to design your course, keep in mind the above mentioned activities related to the learning processes.
