Instructional design models are used to create instructional materials and activities that help learners acquire knowledge, skills, or attitudes. There are several different types of instructional design models which can be used depending on the needs of a particular learning environment. The most common type is the ADDIE model (Analysis-Design-Development-Implementation Evaluation). This five step process involves analyzing learner’s needs; designing instruction based upon those analyses; developing material for use in teaching/learning situations; implementing it into an educational setting such as classrooms or online courses; and evaluating its effectiveness with feedback from students and instructors alike. Other popular designs include Dick & Carey’s Systematic Design Model which emphasizes careful planning before implementation occurs, Kemp’s Instructional Theory Into Practice approach where principles derived from research studies guide decision making about curriculum development projects , Gagne’s Nine Events Of Instruction focusing on cognitive processes associated with understanding new information being presented by teachers/instructors ; Merrill’s Component Display Theory emphasizing breaking down tasks into smaller chunks so they may more easily understood by learners ; Reigeluth ‘ s Elaboration theory stressing connecting concepts together within meaningful contexts through visual displays etc . Each has their own strengths but all have one thing in common: helping people learn better!
Instructional design models are useful for English language learning as they provide a framework to structure the process of designing, developing and delivering instruction. By using an instructional model, teachers can identify objectives that need to be met in order for learners to achieve their goals; develop appropriate activities or materials needed by students; create assessments which measure progress towards those objectives; evaluate the effectiveness of these strategies on student performance over time. Instructional designers also use various methods such as task analysis, needs assessment and learner profiles when creating effective lesson plans. Additionally, technology-based tools like online platforms allow instructors to easily share resources with students while tracking individual progress throughout each course module. Finally, feedback loops enable both teacher and student reflection so adjustments can be made if necessary during implementation stages in order ensure successful outcomes from lessons delivered through this approach
