Typically
in instructional systems design all instruction goes through
a process called ADDIE. The ADDIE process model stands for
Assessment, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation.
This process model generally flows in a linear fashion from
one process step to the next. However, in new media/multimedia
design projects this process is not as straight forward
as seen in the ADDIE process. The Enhanced ADDIE Model
was developed in order to integrate instructional design
principles with those of new media/multimedia. In this process
model the dynamics of this process is cyclical and recursive
with the central element focused on formative evaluation.
Once the dynamics of this process is completed through the
application of each process step to produce a polished and
refined product, then summative evaluation of the finished
product is performed to validate its' effectivenes.

The
Enhanced ADDIE Model is used throughout the development
of the Choral Trainer project. Currently we are in the design
and development stages of this project. We have completed
phase one of this project. To see a working sample of our
first prototype click
here. Our prototype uses Macromedia Flash Player. You
will need to make sure that you install the latest version
of Macromedia Flash Player before you can view our prototype.

Assessment:
|
The
assessment stage of the process model is where the
product goals, objectives, description, sequencing of instruction,
target audience, and instructional strategies and methods
are determined. This step is necessary in order to identify
project needs as well as to define the parameters for the
production of the product. |
|
|
Design: |
The
design stage is where the entire design of the product
is created through the creation of design documents and
instruments. The follwoing list of design elements make
up the full documentation for the entire project.
- Design

- Navigation

Development: |
The
development stage is where all production is performed.
This project will be developed for two delivery mediums:
Computer-based and Web-based. A set of supplementary course
materials will also be produced. The actual CBT and WBT
versions will require full design, development, testing
and evaluation of each module at specified milestones in
order to properly prepare each module and supporting media
components to meet the objectives of the program. The following
development plan consists as follows:
- Phase
One: Design and Development of Units 1 & 2
- Phase
Two: Design and Development of Units 3 & 4
- Phase
Three: Design and Development of Units 5
- Phase
Four: Adaptation of WBT Version to CBT Version
WBT Version: Internet/Distance Learning, CBT Version:
Stand-alone CD-ROM application.

Implementation: |
The
implementation stage is where the finished product
is launched and released. However in the Enhanced ADDIE Model
it is apart of the interactive process of producing the final
product. Since we will be conducting formative evaluations
throughout the design and development of this product it is
necessary to facilitate these evaluations in the actual environment
for which the finished product will be used. |
|
|
Formative
Evaluation: |
The
formative evaluation stage is where each prototype
of the product will be evaluated by the target audience
(users) and experts. These evaluations are necessary for
revisions and modifications that may be needed to ensure
that the finished product meets its overall objectives.
Phase
One of our formative evaluation is completed!
- Phase
One: Formative Evaluation of Units 1 & 2

- Phase
Two: Formative Evaluation of Units 3 & 4
- Phase
Three: Formative Evaluation of Units 5
- Phase
Four: Formative Evaluation of CBT Version

Summative
Evaluation: |
The
summative evaluation stage is where the finished product
is tested by the target audience to validate its effectiveness.
- Phase
Five: Summative Evaluation of WBT and CBT Version
