What does the design phase of the ADDIE model entail?

The design phase of the ADDIE model involves developing instructional materials. This phase is crucial because it translates the information collected and analyzed in the previous phase into a structured format for instruction. During this stage, instructional goals are established, and the specific learning experiences are created to meet those goals. This includes choosing appropriate instructional strategies, designing assessment methods, and organizing the curriculum content to facilitate effective teaching and learning experiences.

In this phase, designers also consider the delivery methods and the resources that will be necessary for the effective execution of the instructional program. Developing these materials with careful attention to the target audience ensures that the content will be engaging, appropriate, and effective in meeting the identified learning objectives.
