DIYEL #2 ADDIE is like an expired medicine; it looks good but no longer works.
Introduction
Table of Posts
Sometimes, we cheat ourselves. One day we open the medicine cabinet looking for a pill. We grab the bottle. The expiration date has passed but we take the medicine anyway because we are in pain. We hope it works. We once read somewhere that medicines are still good a year after expiration. We rationalize. ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement and Evaluate) is one of those medicines.
The core principle of ADDIE is sound. But the rapid demands of competition, changes in the nature of work, learning and learners and advances in technology nullify the expired practices of ADDIE. Do-It-Yourselfers need to find new medicines and new doctors for eLearning. Avoid snake-oil ADDIE doctors posing as eLearning specialists.
