Reading material for Lesson 3.4 ADDIE Model of Instruction

4. Design phase

4.3. Evaluation phase

The evaluation phase consists of two aspects: formative and summative. Formative evaluation is present in each stage of the ADDIE process, while summative evaluation is conducted at the end of their course. Donald Kirkpatrick’s Four Levels of Learning Evaluation are often utilized during this phase of the ADDIE process.

These phases sometimes, overlap and can be inter related; however, they provide a dynamic, flexible guideline for developing effective and efficient instruction (Table 1)
