1. What is instructional Design?

   • Instructional design, also known as instructional systems design (ISD), involves systematically creating learning experiences to support long-term learning. It’s a process that analyzes, designs, develops, implements, and evaluates instructional materials and experiences, aiming for efficient, effective, and engaging knowledge acquisition.

     
     

Instructional design is the process creating educational or training materials and experiences in a structured and effective manner. It involves analyzing learners' needs, defining learning objectives, designing content and assessments, and organizing the delivery of instruction to ensure that the learning goals are met.

1. Learner-Centered Design: Focus on the needs, prior knowledge, and learning styles of the learners

2. Clear Objectives: Define clear, specific, and measurable learning objectives.

3. Active Learning: Incorporate activities that engage learners actively, such as discussions, problem-solving tasks, and hands-on activities.

4. Scaffolding: Provide support structures to help learners progressively build on their existing knowledge.

5. Feedback and Assessment: Include opportunities for learners to receive feedback on their performance.

6. Content Organization: Present content in a logical and coherent manner

Instructional Design is the process of using our knowledge of how people learn to guide our choices of instructional sequences and strategies to meet the needs of the learners and desired learning outcomes.

Instructional Design can be applied to anything that involves Human Performance Improvement. The Instructional Designer is a learning expert who can use their knowledge of the principles of learning and instruction to find the optimal method of instruction. This means finding the most effective, appealing and cost-effective solution. The Instructional Designer analyses the instructional problem, the task, learning needs and learning environment. By clearly defining the learning objectives the Instructional Designer can sequence the content and choose strategies to meet the learning goals. These decisions are based on both knowledge of proven learning strategies and practical experience.

Research has shown that particular ways of delivering instructions are more effective than others. Different kinds of learning goals require different approaches to instruction. The Instructional Designer can determine the best instructional conditions or methods to deliver learning outcomes. The Instructional designer develops instructional strategies that are tailored to the learning objectives and the needs of the learners.

What are the principles of Instructional Design. The principles are to capture the interest of the learners, to state the objectives of the lesson, activate the prior knowledge of the students, to dive deeper to the content, to allow learners to explore more and lastly to give assessment.

• 1) Gain attention.

• 2) Informing of objectives.

• 3) Recall of previous learning.

• 4) Show the content.

• 5) Provide learning guidance.

• 6) Elicit performance.

• 7) Provide feedback.

• 8) Assess performance.
