The production model
E-learning modules are often developed in a reactive manner, based on an assumption made from only the briefest details of the learning need. In order for a learning event and the associated e-learning modules to be fully effective, it’s highly recommended to adhere to the basic principles of a stable instructional design regardless of the final learning delivery method.
At Bayer, we produce e-Learning modules based on the established ADDIE model, which stands for Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. In fact, our processes for internal production of modules are based on this model.
