Analysis and DesignADDIE: methodology used for instructional design. Each letter represent a step for analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation.
• Analysis• Considered statistics of service and comments from audience and employees
• Found that the process to update information could make it imprecisely
• Software solution were considered because of capability to see changes in real time
• SubjectsPlus, from Ithaca College, were selected because is free to use and to customize
• Design• A prototipe was installed to make tests. During this step, the software is adapted to
the information needs identified in Analysis step.
• Two interfaces were considered in Design step: A to Z journals and acces to journals through disciplines
