Reflections:

Remembering:

I have done the tasks listed in the above table.

Understanding:

My major activity during the week was reviewing documents and providing feedback.  These documents included treatment description, additional instructional contents, and the first draft of our product.   Seeing the first draft of the instruction we are preparing made me feel happy.  Looking at the whole product taking shape gives some sense of accomplishment.  Of course, the previous phases (analysis and design) of ADDIE model are also important.  However, the result of the third phase (development) gives more satisfaction because you realistically see what you have produced eventually. 

Applying:

The task of reviewing an instructional product and providing feedback is a skill that can be transferred to many other areas.  Effectively, such a skill is an evaluation activity that will be relevant to any product development.  Whether it is a project like ours or a single lesson, evaluation plays an important role in improving the product into next level. 

Analyzing:

Of course, the review I did this week is a preliminary level of the evaluation process.  I like to call it an internal review.  In the coming weeks, we will start the official external review which will involve SME, and pilot evaluation processes.   

Evaluating:

My experience of the week was great.  Our product is becoming better and clearer.  As I stated it before, there is nothing satisfying than seeing the product itself.  Thus, our instructional product is in a good shape that it should be at this level of the production process. 

Creating:

The next tasks will be the implementation and evaluation phases of ADDIE model.  We will start collecting data that will help us make further improvements.
