INITIAL DESIGN PHASE:

The basic components in this model of Integrated Course Design are the same
as those found in other models of instructional design: analyze the situational
factors, formulate the learning goals, design the feedback and assessment
procedures, and select the teaching/learning activities. What is distinctive about
this model is that these components have been put together in a way that reveals and
emphasizes their inter-relatedness. (See Model 1 below)
