Design Process
Empathy Mapping
Based on the interviews with target learners, I visualized the target learner persona through an empathy mapping process, followed by a needs assessment of instruction. The performance problem of learners was evident, which led me to initiate designing the instruction.
Goal Analysis
Based on the needs assessment, I generated an instructional goal and analyzed the information and skills necessary to be instructed to achieve the goal. Then, I decided on the acceptable evidence for achieving the instructional goal.
