ADDIE Design:
Research Sites & Resources
Learning Objective: The learner will be able to state the reasons for performing this research and will provide a summary of the questions to be asked in this step of design.
In designing instruction you will always need resources. Whether they are online or other media it is essential to identify them in order to:
- Draw from other’s experiences
- Find material to support or supplement the instruction
- Find resources to support the learner
- Reduce costs
The following questions may help focus your evaluation of the resources available:
- Is there available information?
- Are there available courses or materials in other media?
- Are there learning objects from other courses or training that can be used or re-purposed in the course or to complement it?
- Are there experts that can contribute to this course or training as instructors or “guests”?
- What are the available online resources (libraries, websites, and discussion forums)?
- What are the available resources at learner locations (libraries, books, videos, testing centers, and other physical resources)?
|
Once all of the above have been answered, create a summary of the findings. Be as neutral as possible with regard to instructional methodology as many of these resources will not be used in the course or training but to reinforce the learning.
In fact, it is best if supporting resources cover a range of learning modalities.
