The purpose of this web-based tutorial is to introduce you to the first
four stages in Dick and Carey instructional design model and the
relationship
of these stages to writing effective performance objectives.
At the end of this web-based tutorial, there is an activity to
assist you in mastering the science and art of writing performance
objectives. This tutorial
should take you approximately 30 minutes to complete - start to
finish. The
web-based tutorial is organized into the following sections:
- Background:
The background section summarizes some of the history of instructional
design, and provides an overview of the first three stages of the Dick
and Carey model.
- Target Lesson: The target lesson for this tutorial is how to write performance objectives in relation to the Dick and Carey Model.
- Summary: A summary of the materials learned and a set of activities to facilitate your mastery of the content of the tutorial.
You will discover in this brief tutorial that performance objectives
are early requirements in the instructional design process. It is
important to note that you are not expected to be an expert in
instructional design, the Dick and Carery model or an expert in writing
performance objectives by completing this tutorial.
Mastery of instructional design comes from years of experience,
practice, and
readings much larger in scope than presented here. At the conclusion of
this web-based tutorial, you (graduate student in human performance
technology) will be
able to:
- List the first four stages of the Dick and Carey model.
- Briefly describe the first four stages of the Dick and Carey model.
- Describe the core components of performance objectives.
- Identify appropriate action verbs to describe performance objectives.
