Instructional Design: Models

This guide provides recommended resources and learning materials for Instructional Design.

ADDIE

The ADDIE model describes a systematic approach to instructional development. The term is virtually synonymous with instructional systems development (ISD) and evolved informally through oral tradition. It is not a specific, fully elaborated model in its own right but rather an umbrella term that represents a family of models that share a common underlying structure.

  • Analysis
  • Design
  • Development
  • Implementation
  • Evaluation.

SAMR: Substitution Augmentation Modification Redefinition Model

A four-level approach to examining classroom use of technology developed by  Dr. Ruben Puentedura funded by Maine Learning Technology Initiative.

SAMR Model

 Substitution: • What is gained by replacing the older technology with the new technology?
Substitution to Augmentation: Has an improvement been added to the task process that could not be accomplished with the older technology at a fundamental level? How does this feature contribute to the design?
Augmentation - Modification: How is the original task being modified? Does this modification fundamentally depend upon the new technology? How does this modification contribute to the design?
Modification - Redefinition: What is the new task? Is any portion of the original task retained? How is the new task uniquely made possible by the new technology? How does it contribute to the design?

Systematic Design of Instruction

Understanding by Design

The Understanding by Design® framework (UbD™ framework) offers a planning
process and structure to guide curriculum, assessment, and instruction. Its
two key ideas are contained in the title: 1) focus on teaching and assessing for
understanding and learning transfer, and 2) design curriculum “backward” from
those ends.
