 * Needs Assessment Examples**

Here is another example...it doesn't use the same template but I hope the ideas are understood from this site! @http://iit.bloomu.edu/id/NeedsAnalysis/NeedsAnalysis.htm (The "Determining Needs and Solutions" section has some practice exercises that explain what they are looking for in needs analysis. I know these are not education)

Another Education Example @http://ilearn.20m.com/research/needs.htm Again I understand that this is not the template format that we went over in class...I apologize for the extra reading.

=Needs Analysis Practice= Please download and work on one of the exercises. If the entire class picks the same 2 or 3 exercises this discussion will be more helpful.

 * Questions to think about for writing your Needs Analysis**

What is the problem we are asked to solve? Will instruction solve the problem? What is the purpose of the planned instruction? Is an instructional intervention the best solution? p. 29 of Morrison, Ross, and Kemp

What skills and information are necessary to address the identified needs? What knowledge does the expert have that is essential for the task? What related subject content should be taught? How can the subject content items be organized? How is a task analyzed to identify its components and then to sequence the actions required? To what other elements of the instructional design process is task analysis most closely related? p. 75 of Morrison, Ross, and Kemp
