**Guiding Questions**
 * How does ADDIE fit and work with other models that you may have used or reviewed in the first two weeks of class?
 * What is the benefit of each of the parts of Analysis described here and in your textbook, both in general and for your specific project?
 * What tools or options are available to assist you in the Analysis phase?
 * How will you approach the Analysis for your design project?

**Learning Outcomes** By the end of this week’s lesson, you’ll be able to:
 * Complete an analysis for an ID project, addressing need, context, audience, content, delivery, and project plan components.
 * Using a template, write an analysis document intended for the “client” that explains your understanding of the project.

**3.2 Project Deliverable – The Analysis Document** (Each week you will resend your ADDIE document, I’ll just grade on your weeks worth. The next week it will come to me again with the new work. The final week, you should have it done and this is your final project for the class.) An analysis document has many purposes. It serves as a way for you to clarify your thoughts and get the information for your project down on paper. In a corporate environment, it can be part of a proposal for a training solution that is presented to management. For a college course, it often becomes part of the instructor’s guide to help faculty teach the course. The content for this week will help focus your analysis. The following link may also provide helpful guidance in the completion of this phase of your project: @http://www.nedc.nrcs.usda.gov/isd/isd4.html (alternate keywords: job analysis, task analysis, instructional analysis, content analysis) By the end of this week, you will complete the Analysis section of the ADDIE template and submit it to your instructor via E-mail as an attachment. File name: lastnameFirstinitial_analysis (for example: PattersonB_analysis)

Go to the Discussion tab and participate in the following discussions:

 * What might necessitate eliminating part of the analysis from your instructional design?
 * Do you think it is important for you to explain your entire thinking to the client in your summary of the project?

Advanced Preparation...  Next week, you will be addressing ADDIE’s first “D” – Design. During this week you will develop objectives for your training, and begin to convert those objectives into a design. One tool you have for this process is the Lesson Plan Template available on the Regis Teacher Education site. Although designed for K-12, this tool can easily be modified for the corporate environment. Take time to review the Objective section of the website that is found on the Teacher Education website: @http://academic.regis.edu/lessonplans/index.html
