Review of Instructional Design Template

11 step instructional design process as presented in the text:

1. Identify your underlying goal

            -Instructor must define and clearly set expectations of what the course entails

2. Analyze learners' needs and abilities--Learning Activities

 -(Add an analysis of content and instructor needs/abilities/preferences-Professor Newberry).

            -Create learning surveys that result in overall best practices for your class

3. Identify what to teach

            -What objectives do you want to start with and later end with?

4. Set learning objectives

            -Have I clearly set my objectives? Is my class self-sufficient?

5. Identify prerequisites

            -What course(s) are required to enter the course?

                          -Public Administration, Business Management, Information Security course(this helps to ensure a student will understand the business and legal aspects of online course development upon entering the course).

6. Pick the approach to meet each objective

            -What assignments are due to see if the students understand the material?

7. Decide the teaching sequence of your objectives

            -Lecture, assignment, discussion board…Online Midterm and Final Examination

8. Create objects to accomplish objectives

            -What practice items and assessment items will I use?

9. Create tests (Add other methods to determine whether or not objectives are met as appropriate-   Professor Newberry). What forms of tests will my students excel in?

10. Select learning activities-What forms of interaction are my students familiar with?(Should be incorporated into Step 2).

10.5 Development and Testing

            -Creation of the test

            -Analysis of the test

            -Review sequences of the test

            -Will the test satisfy end user needs?

            -Is the test secure?

            -Is this type of test a proper way to measure what the students have learned?

            -Reviewed again by a subject expect team for approval (Network Administrators, IT Crew, and instructor)
