In the context of the ADDIE model, what should be done in the development phase?

In the development phase of the ADDIE model, the primary focus is on creating the instructional materials and content based on the needs assessment and goals established in the previous phases. Writing the instructional program involves designing lesson plans, creating training manuals, developing multimedia content, and preparing any assessments or evaluations that will be used to measure learner progress. This stage is critical because it translates theoretical ideas and learning objectives into practical tools that facilitate effective learning.

The development phase is where the planning becomes tangible, and the quality of the instructional materials directly impacts the effectiveness of the training. By focusing on writing the instructional program during this phase, you ensure that the training is built on solid foundations that align with the defined goals and objectives. The resulting materials should be both engaging and informative, designed to meet the varied learning styles and needs of the trainees.
