Tryout of an Organizing Strategy for Lesson Design: Maintenance Procedure With Checklist
Abstract
Guided Approach, Instructional Design Advisor (GAIDA) is a computer- based module of instruction on how to design instruction. The example Investigated In this study was designing a lesson on conducting a functional check of the electrical circuits of the gun In the F-16 aircraft, using a checklist. The designer module Is aimed at Air Force personnel who are well acquainted with the equipment, but Inexperienced in designing instruction. A formative evaluation study was performed in the one-on-one mode, with six students who taught gun maintenance procedures in the Armament Specialist course. These students had no difficulties in comprehending instructional design processes, or in using them to devise a storyboard for a computer-based lesson on the functional check of the gun. While potential improvements such as pictorial additions were noted, students judged the lessons to be satisfactory and potentially effective. The GAIDA approach to teaching instructional design using a narrowly focused model appears to be feasible and capable.
