Traditional ID Models

The basic elements that the traditional instructional design models generally include are:

• Analyze
  
• Develop
• Design
  
• Implement
  
• Evaluate

Most or even all of these elements of instructional design can be found in each of the instructional design models (Dick & Carey, ADDIE, Big 8 Model, ASSURE, and the complete model of instructional design.

Dick & Carey Model:
This model would be appropriate to use in everyday lesson planning because it has all of the essential steps of a lesson. It basically looks at the students and how they will preform in a lesson. It allows the teacher to aim for specific outcomes and if something is not working the teacher can take a step back and change what they are doing to get the desired outcome. This model would be great when teaching to the benchmarks when a specific outcome is needed.

Big 8 Model:
I think that this model would go best with a specific, one time lesson, in other words it could be a mini-lesson. I think this because it seems to me that this model really hits on one set of objects and activities that are taught with media and at the end the students are evaluated. A teacher would get more specific with their everyday lessons. For example, a teaching method that would fit really good with this model would be when teach adding to a 2nd grade class teaching them one digit plus one digit would be a specific mini-lesson within one big lesson. It allows for a specific objectives and outcomes like I have stated above.

ASSURE:
To me this lesson model seems to be very similar to the Dick & Carey model. This is everything that a teacher does day to day to help with the classroom planning. As a teacher I used this probably the most because the students can change from a subject to subject basis and they can grow and develop more over time. I feel that if a classroom teacher does not use these different elements in their classroom to plan and design lessons that they really are not assessing how their lesson can fit their students and what would be best for the students.

Complete Model of ID:
The best time to use this model would be when looking at teaching a unit to the class. I think that it would be to use in a classroom with different reading and writing levels. It would allow the teacher to adjust the lesson to the different levels along with move around and hit the different things that need more attention.

ADDIE Model:
This model seems to be meant for more of a hands on activity lesson. This would be great when working with the younger elementary students in math when using manipulatives. It allows time for the students to explore and learn as they are exploring. From what I have observed from my students is that they sometimes may self teach themselves with guidance from the teacher and using the manipulatives as long as they are allowed time to explore.
