Multimedia-based Instructional Design

Assignment 1: Needs Assessment Report

Due: 1 December 2024

Purpose: This assignment is designed to equip students with the skills to conduct a needs assessment. In groups, students need to select an educational context to conduct the needs assessment. This serves as the fundamental steps towards the rest of the other assignments, which will build up to the final project of this course. Therefore, please make sure that you have discussed and decided the topic thoroughly with your group members.

Learning Objectives: This assignment will be used to assess your performance on CLO1:

Design a multimedia-based instructional material involving needs assessment, content-, learner, and context analyses, learning outcomes, assessment instruments and instructional strategies.

Guidelines:

1.   Select an educational context: Students should discuss and decide a specific

educational setting (e.g., a classroom, training program, or online course) in which they wish to conduct a needs assessment. It is crucial to ensure that the chosen context is feasible for data collection and analysis.

2.   Data Collection: Students need to design and implement data collection methods, which may include surveys, interviews, observations, or a combination of these. The data collected should be relevant to the instructional context.

3.   Data Analysis: After collecting data, students will analyze the information to identify the instructional problem/gap/needs. This analysis should be evidence-based.

4.   Reporting Findings: Students will prepare a formal report that includes the following components:

●    Introduction: Provide an overview of the instructional setting and the purpose of the needs assessment.

●    Data Collection and Analysis: Describe the instrument(s) and procedure of data collection, and present the findings.

●    Problem Identification: Clearly state the identified instructional problem(s) and provide supporting evidence.

●    Recommendations: Offer initial suggestions of a lesson or training module for addressing the identified problem based on the data analysis.

●   Conclusion: Summarize the key findings and write a clear and specific

instructional goal statement (one statement only). This goal should be directly related to the identified problem.
