Analysis
The purpose is to understand the audience in depth and to have a clear learning
goal. Basically, you answer three questions The Who, the What and the When.
The first one is related to the possible participants of your course, including what
they already now, their background and experience in general. You must also
consider how digitally literate they are. The second is about what you want them
to accomplish when they finish the course. To figure this out, you need to have
clear and measurable learning objectives. A good idea is to use Blooms
Taxonomy to guide students from basic cognitive skills to more complex thinking
processes. The third is related to timing. It takes into account how much
information to cover in a single course. You have to ask yourself if it is better to
break down the information or to have longer pieces.

Design

This is when you plan your lesson. You may want to use Backward Design, so you
start from the learning outcome and directly link other parts of the lesson to it to
have a clear alignment. In this stage, you think about the actual design of the
course including the interface. You have to also consider universal design
principles to make sure you cater for everyone’s needs. T is advisable to have a
storyboard, a draft, that facilitates the creation of resources and helps with
decision making.

Development

This is the stage in which you create the content. You can decide to use a variety
of resources, but just make sure that you have a clear design plan and that it
allows the flexibility to make changes. Ask for feedback to others and do any
action that gives you information about course effectivity and student-user
experience.

Implementation
Train the teachers if it is a teacher-led course, publish the course in the Learning
Management System and keep an eye on how it develops and track student´s
progress. Make sure you have spaces for communication

Evaluation

Collect data about students´ performance and experience in the course. The
ADDIE model encourages designers to see the course as a project that can be
improved based on the information you gathered.
