Detailed Design Document Systematic Design of Instruction

​

In Fall 2015, during the Systematic Instructional Design course, we were tasked to design and develop a short instructional program using the elements of instructional systems design. I chose “Active Listening” as my topic because listening is an important component of effective communication. By perfecting active listening skill, it will foster positive learning in the classroom by assisting students in mastering the contents of course or subjects, ask incisive questions and learn to think critically about the content. I researched on the principles of active listening and the skills on how to be an active listener. I have attached a copy of the Detailed Design Document for this instructional program. This instructional program was completed and evaluated for its effectiveness.
