HPEI7013 INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN
ASSIGNMENT 1

OBJECTIVE:
The objective of this assignment is to provide you the opportunity to experience the process
of systemic instructional design using a suitable instructional design model for planning and
designing instruction.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare a design document to answer the questions in Assignment 1 in your subject area
and expertise. Please elaborate or provide evidence where necessary. This document will be
the basis of the development of instructional materials in the Assignment 2.

QUESTIONS:
ASSIGNMENT 1 : 50%
Needs Requirement Analysis and Design of Instruction
Thinking Skills in a student occur when the student appreciates diverse
views, is able to think critically and be innovative, has problem solving
initiative, and an entrepreneurial mindset. (Malaysia Education Blueprint 2015
- 2025 (Higher Education).
Problem solving is an important skill which needs to be developed among students to
inculcate the culture of thinking. This is because problem solving involves transferring skills
learnt to different situations while learners are engaged in cognitive activities (Jonassen
2013). Jonassen (2013) claims that problem solving ensures meaningful learning and should
be accompanied by the processes of analogising, modeling, reasoning causally and arguing.
Your task as an instructional designer is to design suitable problem tasks to address the
problem of lack of thinking skills and problem situations for learning for your students.
In this assignment, as an instructional designer you are required to design suitable problem
situations for a particular context in a learning environment, example, students in school, or
in institutes of higher education, in a particular subject area or course of your choice. This

HPEI7013/ASS1/SEPT2016/LA

design will assist you in selecting and determining suitable instructional materials to be
developed in the next assignment.
You will need to prepare a design document which covers the following areas:
a) Justify the lack of problem solving and thinking skills among students in your context
and subject area, as well as lack of use of problem solving tasks as resources for the
context of the study. Please justify with evidence from literature. (10 marks)
b) Describe the context and elaborate on the general characteristics of the learners or
target participants who will use the instruction/instructional material. Use evidence
from data and/or valid analysis from interviews, and/ or survey data. (10 marks)
c) Determine a suitable instructional goal related to the task for the learners in your
context. Based on this instructional goal, you will need to achieve the following:
i.

a goal analysis to demonstrate the kinds of learning required to achieve this


goal.

ii.

the entry behaviours and performance objectives for achieving the goal.
(15 marks)

d) Select the most relevant performance objectives related to the goal from section (c)
above. Based on this performance objective and to achieve your goal, you will need
to design the following:
i.

relevant assessment methods

ii.

instructional strategies

Give a rationale for the choice of the assessment and instructional strategies you
have designed.
