 In Part One we follow Dick and Carey’s model (1990) of separating the analysis phase of instructional design into two parts: needs assessment and front-end analysis. Needs assessment focuses on determining the current state and the desired state and the type of business issue the need arises from. Front-end analysis then determines how to close that gap with a results-driven solution.In Part Two,Multimedia Instructional Design, we have provided the activities and steps required to produce a course design specification (CDS) document.We include many tips on project management for course developers to fully understand the complexities involved in multimedia projects. Such information should guide them in selecting media. For example, if assessment and analysis result in a web-based solution, the project team should know what’s involved so they can determine whether or not the solution is realistic for their business and can assemble the required resources before the project starts. The complexities might, though, result in choosing another solution. Part Three is on multimedia development and implementation. Here there is divergence of methodology depending on the media. Therefore, we begin with a chapter on common elements of development and implementation and then explain the particular aspects for computer-based, web-based, distance broadcast, and performance support solutions.We also differentiate the design issues between objectivist and constructivist theories of instruction and their impact on multimedia. We also discuss SCORM (Searchable Content Objects Reference Model) standards and their impact on e-learning development. Part Four is on multimedia evaluation.We discuss evaluation from two perspectives: the strategic and the tactical. To address strategic issues, we have included a chapter on how to develop an evaluation strategy for your organization to measure reaction, knowledge, performance, and cost.We provide the templates and a completed model of an evaluation strategy. A crossover tool from strategic to tactical is an e-learning evaluation tool that can be used if you are considering buying off-the-shelf e-learning or to be certain that you include the necessary components in custom-developed e-learning that you build internally. This evaluation tool is a companion to the new tool that assists in making “build or buy” decisions in Chapter Twelve, Extant Data Analysis.
