METHODOLOGY

How we approach your needs

When I work with a new client who is looking for instructional design, I typically follow a process that includes the following steps:

​

  1. Analysis: I first analyze your needs and goals. This includes understanding the learner's needs, the desired learning outcomes, and the resources that are available.

  2. Design: Next I design the curriculum. This includes creating a learning plan, selecting instructional materials, and developing assessments.

  3. Development: After this I develop the curriculum. This includes creating or adapting instructional materials, developing assessments, and creating a learning environment.

  4. Implementation: I then implement the curriculum. This includes delivering instruction, providing support to learners, and collecting data on learner progress.

  5. Evaluation: I evaluate the curriculum. This includes collecting data on learner outcomes and making recommendations for improvement.

CURRENT METHODOLOGIES

​

ADDIE

The ADDIE model is a five-step instructional design model that stands for Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The ADDIE model is a linear process, meaning that each step is completed before moving on to the next step.

​

SAM

The SAM model is a seven-step instructional design model that stands for Situation, Analysis, Needs, Goals, Objectives, Methods, and Evaluation. The SAM model is a more iterative process, meaning that we may go back and forth between steps as needed.

 

 

We will typically choose a model that is most appropriate for the specific project. However, both models can be effective in creating high-quality instructional materials.

In addition to following a specific model, we will also use a variety of tools and techniques to create an effective curriculum. These tools and techniques may include:

  • Needs assessment

  • Task analysis

  • Bloom's taxonomy

  • Instructional strategies

  • Assessment strategies

  • Learning environment design

By following a systematic process and using a variety of tools and techniques, I can create an effective curriculum that meets the needs of the learner and achieves the desired learning outcomes.
