\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0I have a love\/hate relationship with writing this blog <\/span>and often it applies to the whole program.<\/span> On one hand, I hate it because I have no instructing experience <\/span>and therefore<\/span> I have nothing <\/span>interesting or unique to say about the subject<\/span>.<\/span> I also find it boring to regurgitate the information I learned from assigned readings. <\/span>It\u2019s killing my soul to put out these bland posts. <\/span>On the other hand, I love reading blog<\/span>s<\/span> of other students because they contain the <\/span>useful <\/span>personal experience and valuable insights. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0What are some things to consider when selecting a design model? <\/span>I don\u2019t know, therefore<\/span> I have to turn to the experts. According to <\/span>Dousay (2018), <\/span>it is important to consider<\/span> the anticipated delivery forma<\/span>t, if<\/span> the instruction <\/span>will<\/span> be synchronous online, synchronous face to face, asynchronous online, or some combination of these formats.\u00a0<\/span>How do I make design decisions? It helps to have a model or process to follow once it is selected. For example, The Gagne-Briggs model describes not only how to create instruction but how to determine the content (Gagne et al., 1988). What I liked about it is that it breaks down the learning process into 9 steps, although it seems to be more appropriate for a synchronous <\/span>face to face instruction.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

1. Gain Attention<\/span>
\n2. Inform learner of objective<\/span>
\n3. Stimulate prerequisite recall<\/span>
\n4. Present stimulus material<\/span>
\n5. Provide learning guidance<\/span>
\n6 Elicit performance<\/span>
\n7. Provide feedback<\/span>
\n8. Assess performance<\/span>
\n9. Enhance retention and transfer<\/span><\/p>\n

Every model has its own set of principles and processes. I’ve never actually used one, but it seems that breaking down a learning process into smaller chunks should be helpful in making design decisions. Which model would I choose? According to Dousay (2018) “<\/span><\/span>instructional design models seek to help designers overcome gaps in what is learned due to either instruction, motivation, or resources.” I have some experience in group facilitation where many participants lacked motivation, so ARCS-V model created by Keller (2016) sounds interesting. It breaks down motivation into four variables: attention, relevance, confidence and satisfaction. These four variables are used in a Motivational Design Process which has 10 steps.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

1. Obtain course information<\/span>
\n2. Obtain audience information<\/span>
\n3. Analyze audience<\/span>
\n4. Analyze other course elements<\/span>
\n5. List objectives and assessments<\/span>
\n6. List potential tactics<\/span>
\n7. Select & design tactics<\/span>
\n8. Integrate with instruction<\/span>
\n9. Select and develop materials<\/span>
\n10. Evaluate and revise<\/span><\/p>\n

What I liked about Keller’s work is that he doesn’t just provide a model and 10 steps to guide a design process, he also discusses various tactics and strategies to keep the students engaged and motivated.<\/span><\/p>\n
