How do you align your TNA with the ADDIE model of instructional design?

1 What is ADDIE?

ADDIE is an acronym for Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. It is a widely used framework for creating and improving instructional products and programs. It guides you through a series of phases that are iterative, flexible, and responsive to feedback and changes. Each phase has its own inputs, outputs, and criteria for quality and success.

3 How to align TNA with Design phase

The Design phase of ADDIE is where you plan your training solution based on the results of your TNA. You select the instructional strategies, methods, and media that best suit your learning objectives and audience. You outline the content, activities, interactions, and assessments that will facilitate learning and engagement. You create the instructional blueprint, such as a storyboard, a curriculum map, or a prototype, that specifies the structure, sequence, and flow of your training solution.

4 How to align TNA with Development phase

The Development phase of ADDIE is where you create and test your training solution according to your instructional blueprint. You produce the content, graphics, audio, video, and other media elements that will deliver your training solution. You develop the software, tools, and platforms that will support your training solution. You conduct formative evaluation, such as usability testing, pilot testing, and peer review, to ensure your training solution meets the quality standards and the learning objectives.

5 How to align TNA with Implementation phase

The Implementation phase of ADDIE is where you deliver and facilitate your training solution to your learners. You prepare the instructors, facilitators, and learners for the training experience. You distribute the materials, resources, and instructions that will enable your learners to access and participate in your training solution. You monitor and support the learning process and the learning environment. You collect feedback and data from your learners and stakeholders during and after the training.

6 How to align TNA with Evaluation phase

The Evaluation phase of ADDIE is where you measure and evaluate the effectiveness and impact of your training solution. You use the data and feedback from the Implementation phase and compare them with the success criteria and the performance gap from the Analysis phase. You conduct summative evaluation, such as quizzes, tests, surveys, interviews, observations, and performance indicators, to assess the learning outcomes and the return on investment of your training solution. You identify the strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement of your training solution.
