REFLECTION - WEEK SIX -

For this class, Dr Chin teach three of topic. For the first topic is, Gagnes nine events of instruction,  Assure model and Addie model. There are 9 stages of Gagnes model. For every stage has their own methods for gaining learners attention. Some of the advantage is help students make sense of new information by relating it to something they already know or to something they have already experienced, provide instructional supports as needed- as scaffolds which can be removed after the student learns the task or content and so on.

The second is Assure model. A for analyse learner, S for states objective, S for select method, material and model. R for require learner participation, E for evaluate and revise. All of this already explained by Dr Chin. She explained clearly and I easily understand it.


The last one is Addie model. The ADDIE model is actually a frame work that lists the generic process traditionally used by instructional designer and training developers (Morrison, 2010, 28). The five phases—Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation—represent a dynamic, flexible guideline for building effective training and performance support tools
It is an Instructional Systems Design (ISD) model. Most of the current instructional design models are variations of the ADDIE process, other models include the Dick & Carey and Kemp ISD models. One commonly accepted improvement to this model is the use of rapid prototyping. This is the idea of receiving continual or formative feedback while instructional materials are being created. This model attempts to save time and money by catching problems while they are still easy to fix.



Instructional theories also play an important role in the design of instructional materials. Theories such as behaviorism, constructivism, social learning and cognitivism help shape and define the outcome of instructional materials.
