As an ID novice, I'm looking at the ADDIE format and really liking it. I am a list maker, I like to know what I've done, know what needs to be done and know how I'm going to do it. That's the way I approach my lesson plans at school. Without putting a fancy acronym to it, I've been using a modified version of ADDIE. Hopefully, that will help with this class and, ultimately, becoming an Instructional Designer.
