What is Instructional Design?

A defined and systematic design of instructional properties (i.e., teaching and training) to assist learners in acquiring knowledge or skills. The 4 types of instructional methods are: lecture, demonstration, cooperative & collaborative learning and case study methods.
A typical instructional design process consists of the following steps:

  • Analysis of Learners: Characterizing the target group's needs, traits, and learning styles.
  • Define Objectives: This method includes defining objectives and establishing clear and measurable goals for the learning experience.
  • Resource Selection: Selecting appropriate instructional strategies, tools, and materials to support the objectives.
  • Design and Development: Creating learning materials like online classes, video instructions, or educational manuals.
  • Deploying and Assessment: Showing the learning solution, measuring if it worked, and changing based on concerns and results.

Academic theories and models provide a framework for instructional designers to create effective and engaging learning experiences. A few instructional design models in this regard are ADDIE, SAM, Bloom’s Taxonomy and Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction.

Why Go for Instructional Design Consulting?

As workplace learning transitions from knowledge acquisition to practical application and performance, the demand for personalized learning that aligns with organizational priorities exceeds available resources and expertise. Although certain organizations possess employees capable of designing and developing fundamental eLearning or instructor-led training, they may necessitate supplementary assistance in instructional and course content design to create innovative course content and learning experience design across all digital and in-person methodologies.

Our learning instructional design consulting team will listen to your requirements. They’ll understand how to help you reach your education and training objectives through pedagogical approaches and instructional strategies targeted to your needs. Our experts will collaborate closely with you to create a tailored learning solution that suits your organization’s needs.

9 Instructional Design Principles

Gagné's Nine Events of Instruction (1965) - These principles were invented well before eLearning had ever been born, but they have been widely implemented and have scientific backing. The nine principles are:

  • Get Attention: Focus learners on instruction.
  • Identify Outcomes: State the goals of the learning experience.
  • Stimulate Recall of Prior Learning: Support learners in linking newly ascribed content with previous knowledge.
  • Present the Content: Present information in a structured and impactful manner.
  • Give Learning Directions: Including tips or examples or a strategy for understanding.
  • Elicit Performance: Provide opportunities for the student to practice what they’ve learnt.
  • Feedback: Provide informative feedback to confirm correct answers and clarify misunderstandings.
  • Evaluate: Measure learner performance to see if the objectives are completed.
  • Improve Retention and Transfer of Knowledge: Support use of knowledge in practical, authentic settings and foster long-term retention of information.

As a guiding set of principles this distills down how to design learning effectively in whatever instructional format.
