Schedule
Here I’ve mapped out the schedule for developing the entire learning solution. Dick and Carey emphasized the importance of using systematic plans in designing instruction. The components of the system include the teacher, learner, instructional materials, and learning environment. I have planned the schedule for the development of the instructional materials. The Dick and Carey model includes the following steps (Khalil & Elkhider, 2016):
• Identify instructional goals
• Conduct instructional analysis
• Identify entry behaviors and learner characteristics
• Write performance objectives
• Develop criterion-referenced test items
• Develop instructional strategy
• Develop and select instructional materials
• Develop and conduct formative evaluation
• Develop and conduct summative evaluation
Ultimately I utilized a combination of the Dick and Carey model and the ADDIE framework; Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate. I deconstructed the design phase of ADDIE into its components as suggested by Dick and Carey. First make assessments, choose a course format, then outline an instructional strategy. During the analysis phase students can demonstrate if they know the content, which helps solidify the assessment first. Then, I select a course format or delivery system. This is the medium in which information will be presented. In this case, the students are spread out across several continents. Since these students will be tested online they’ll be learning with all online lectures, readings, discussions, and projects. Time commitment for PEOI volunteers, including training, is approximately 10-12 hours over a period of 4 weeks.
