The following presentation provides a basic description of the ADDIE and Dick & Carey Models used by Instructional Designers to prescribe training programmes.

2. WHAT IS
INSTRUCTIONAL
DESIGN? • Instruction Design is the process of creating an
appropriate instruction with the main goal of
improving the instruction and essentially the
instructor. Two models of Instructional Design
are The ADDIE Model and the Dick and Carey
Model.

3. ADDIE
The ADDIE model is the
generic process traditionally
used by instructional
designers and training
developers. The five phases -
Analysis, Design,
Development,
Implementation, and
Evaluation, represent a
dynamic, flexible guideline
for building effective training
and performance support
tools.

4. SIMPLIFIED DESCRIPTION OF ADDIE?
ANALYSE
Defining what is
to be learned
DEVELOP AND
DESIGN
How it is to be
learned and
authoring tools
IMPLEMENTATION
Installing real world
context.
EVALUATION
Adequacy of
instruction

5. DICK AND CAREY MODEL
Dick and Carey's model (1996) is
systematic in nature. The model is
a procedural system including ten
major process components (nine
basic steps in an iterative cycle and
a culminating evaluation of the
effectiveness of the instruction).

6. SIMPLIFIED DESCRIPTION OF THE DICK AND CAREY
MODEL?
IDENTIFY
Goals, Learner analysis
and learning and
performance goals.
DEVELOP
Criteria based
assessments, develop
learning strategies
choose learning material
and activities.
IMPLEMENT
PLAN
EVALUATION
Formative and
summative
evaluations.
NB: Although the Dick and Carey Model has 9 thematic priorities, this is a simplified representation
which shows that both models really accomplish the same goals but via a different strategy.

7. COMPARISON/ CONTRAST NO. 1
Each model has its own unique characteristics and
elements that make up each phase. The five phases of the
ADDIE model have a clear meaning. This step-by-step
method occurs linearly with easy distinction in progression.
With the Dick and Carey model, it includes much more
detail phases. The Dick and Carey consist of ten detail
phases that are executed iteratively rather than linearly like
the ADDIE model.

8. COMPARISON/ CONTRAST NO. II
The evaluation process in the two methods of instruction
has its differences as well. The ADDIE method is set up to
evaluate in the fifth and final phase in its approach. This
phase consists of two forms of evaluation formative and
summative. The Formative focuses on the processes done
throughout the model.
The Dick and Carey model has evaluations throughout
each phase of the method. Revisions are made throughout
each step in order to improve directions and
understanding in each phase. Data is also used in order to
identify any difficulties that one may be having throughout
each phase.

9. COMPARISON/ CONTRAST NO. III
There is a similarity between both the ADDIE and Dick and
Carey models of instructional design. The system
approaches that are both models are on the input, the
output, and the process of designing the curriculum. The
two differences are the number of steps put into each
model and the evaluation process of each method of
design.
