Instructional Design Process
• Analyze – needs, levels, goals
• Design – objectives, experiences
• Build – appropriate tech, media
• Deploy – pilot, scale-up
• Evaluate – results Vs objectives
Pk 11/2005
Analyze - needsAnalyze - needs
• What do learners want to learn?– Why are they learning?– How much they want to learn?– What kind of knowledge they seek?
• Where & When will they learn?
Pk 12/2005
Analyze - levelsAnalyze - levels
• Current levels of knowledge
• How can they learn best?– Language skills– Typing skills– Physical abilities– Motivation levels
• Are they techno-friendly?
Pk 13/2005
DesignDesign
• Translate each objective into :
• High level goals – Lesson Plans
• Low level goals – Learning Objects
• How achieving each goal will affect:– Skills, Knowledge, Beliefs, Attitudes

Design : One Idea at a timeDesign : One Idea at a time
• Learning Object Concept– Lowest unit of complete instruction– Can stand on its own– Many objects make a Unit– One idea – One learning experience!– Evaluate learning at this level

What are "learning objects" What are "learning objects"
"modular digital resources, uniquely identified and metatagged, that can be used to support learning." -- National Learning Infrastructure Initiative
"any digital resource that can be reused to support learning" -- David A. Wiley
"The main idea of 'learning objects' is to break educational content down into small chunks that can be reused in various learning environments, in the spirit of object-oriented programming"

One slightly lengthier characterizationOne slightly lengthier characterization Learning objects are a new way of thinking about learning content. Traditionally, content comes in a several hour chunk. Learning objects are much smaller units of learning.
Are self-contained – each learning object can be taken Are self-contained – each learning object can be taken independently independently
Are reusable – a single learning object may be used in Are reusable – a single learning object may be used in multiple contexts for multiple purposesmultiple contexts for multiple purposes

What this meansWhat this means• Teach in small packets – LO concept
– Each LO is a “micro-lesson”
– Conveys a single concept, skill or fact
– Immediately lets the learner practice
– Allows immediate feedback and reinforcement
• Keep presentations short and simple– Eliminate unnecessary material – move to “More”
– Limit no. of items on lists, etc
– Simplify text and graphics

Data Tracking MethodsData Tracking Methods
• Storing data files– Each learner data is a file stored locally– Quick, inexpensive but not secure
• E-Mail data tracking– Generating a message that contains the data
• Using a Database– More efficient but requires expertise
• Learning Management Systems
