Chapter 2.1

Define performance analysis, needs assessment, needs statements and instructional goals.

 

          Performance analysis is seldom used in the public school setting. Designers engage in this stage to identify the problem precisely, which is not an easy task. The question is if a performance can be solved instruction the next step is assessment which is required the conduct of job analysis to identify instructional goals. In the needs assessment stage the purpose is to require information in order to verify problems and identify solutions. There are three components in this stage which are establishing a goal (desired status), the second component is determining the actual status or the performance of the goal and the last component is identifying the gap between the desired and the actual status describing the need. In the instructional goal process it is directly linked to the needs assessment study. It is a clear, general statement of a learner outcome that is related to an identified problem and needs assessment and statement and achievable through instruction rather some more efficient means.

 Question 2.2

How to identify an instructional goal that meets the criteria for initiating the design of effective instruction?

 

          There are four major steps in identifying and instructional goal which are:

1.    Is the instructional goal acceptable to administrators?

The task at hand is: do the designers have knowledge of the information in order to teach the learner.

2.    Are there sufficient resources to develop instruction?

Designers must have accurate materials in order to develop the right instruction.

3.    Is the content stable.

The material that is being taught to the learners is it suitable for their age group.

4.    Are learners available?

The most important question is will there be any learners able to learn the materials at hand because without them there is no purpose.

 

The instructional designer must be aware that instructional design needs to take place in a specific context that that includes a number when identifying the goal that a designer must use to complete this goal.

Question 2.4

          How to evaluate instructional goals for congruence with learner characteristics, learning and performance contexts and tools available for learners?

 

          This is the most important task in this question. The description of what learners will be able to do. It is not complete without an indication of which the learners are the context in which they will use the skills and tools that are available.
The designer must be clear about what is exactly who the learners are rather than making vague statements about them. They must be clear about the materials, I can say that enough; be very Clear. The designer should examine additional questions when contemplating an individual project and do not assume. The ability and willingness to work in teams is also very important because without access to appropriate learners the designers will be unable to implement the total design process
