INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN PROJECT
By Kenton Larsen
Presented to Instructional Design class Central Michigan University
Introduction
The Big Idea: Student – Brand thyself!
• Purpose: Familiarize students with the role, function, purpose, and business of branding, how it impacts and works with advertising and marketing, and the elements of branding to achieve the proper planning and execution of advertising creative.
• Product: An interactive Web lesson that answers the questions: – What’s a brand?
– What’s branding?
– What’s personal branding?
– How can you build your own brand?
ADDIE Process
2.1 Analyze – Clarify the instructional problem
• Weaker marks in the branding part of Intro to Advertising class.
• Students don’t have a firm grasp on “branding” and how to apply it to clients’ advertising and promotional problems.
• Gap between desired and actual outcomes.• Educational need: to instruct students in the subject
matter using “authentic pedagogy,” worthwhile and meaningful accomplishments reflecting what happens in the workplace, and promoting “deep knowledge and understanding.” (McTighe and Self, 2003)
ADDIE Process Cont.
2.2 Design – Design instructional strategies• After completing an interactive Web-based lesson,
students will be able to write, construct, and express a brand story – a snapshot of what it is now or where they hope to take it – using a technology-based learning resource.

2.3 Develop – Produce materials.• I’ve built an interactive Web-based lesson, which will
act as a supplemental/enrichment resource: student-controlled, self-paced, and embedded with tasks and a final assessment.

2.4 Implement – Testing prototypes• Use this lesson with Advertising students at the end of
the branding unit, just before the final test in the course.
