Putting Instructional Systems Design Models into Teaching Practices

A model in instructional design describes the process of creating something, not the product itself. Instructional design involves developing educational materials systematically, considering various educational contexts and utilising effective teaching strategies, technologies, and media (Gibbons, Boling & Smith, 2014; Branch & Kopcha, 2014).

Prescriptive and descriptive instructional design models are categorised into theoretical/conceptual, organisation, and planning-and-prognosis models (DeWitt, Alias & Siraj, 2015; Seels, 1997; Branch & Kopcha, 2014).
