               ADDIE Model of instructional design

        Among the many models of instructional design, ADDIE model is also one of them. ADDIE stands for Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation. It is used as a framework for designing and development of various interactive and effective educational and training materials. This model provides learning designers with an essential structure for designing curricula in any learning environment. The ADDIE model has become one of the most widely used instructional design frameworks in the world.

A short history of ADDIE Model

        Since the 1970s, the ADDIE model has been used in instructional design. It was originally developed for the United States Army by Florida State University's Centre for Educational Technology; ADDIE was later adopted by all branches of the United States Armed Forces. Later, this model was finally extended for use in other fields, such as business training and education.

The five phases of ADDIE Model are-

ANALYSIS- At this stage, instructional designers collect data and make decisions that will make the training development process run more smoothly. During this phase, instructional designers analyze training needs and construct learning objectives to address those needs. In addition, the proper delivery methods are chosen, as are the resources and boundaries. Communications with persons who may be engaged in the design or implementation begin at this level.

DESIGN- The instructional designer creates the instruction's blueprint at this stage. The instructional content and information are organized into logical sections. Rough drafts of screenplays or training plans are produced. For e-learning modules, storyboards are prepared. Communication with the design team continues. Stakeholders document, review, and sign off on strategies.

DEVELOPMENT- Several important activities happen at this stage. Digital and print delivery are created, assembled, and organized by the developers. Training videos are made, edited, and recorded. E-learning and other technical aspects of training are being tried and improved. The project documents are evaluated, and the designers are given feedback. Some or all of the trainings may be tested with a small group of people, including members of the learning design team. The design/project moves to the next level after the stakeholders approve the design strategy. 

IMPLEMENTATION- In this stage, the actual training is delivered. During this stage, videos, E-learning and other materials are accessed by the participants and delivered to them. Much of the real work is done in this stage as instructional designers and students work together to train on new tools that the design can be continuously evaluated for further improvement.

EVALUATION- This stage combines with all of the others in the training process. This stage consists of two parts: i.) Formative evaluation and ii.) Summative evaluation. The formative evaluation outlines the examination performed during the other four stages of the training process. It allows those involved in training or curriculum development to identify potential training barriers before they occur, respond to training challenges, avoid repeating mistakes, and make course corrections, whereas summative evaluation focuses on examining the training's outcome during the implementation stage.
