The ADDIE Backwards Model that is shown below is similar to the traditional ADDIE model, except that the steps in the Analysis Phase have been changed to follow Phillips' Needs Model and Kirkpatrick's Four Levels of Evaluations (see Introduction to the Analysis Phase for a full explanation). In addition, the steps within each phase are aligned with one of Phillips' Needs, as shown in the model below.

Hovering your mouse over the below diagram will display a short description about that section of the ADDIE Backwards Planning Model. Clicking on it with your mouse will open up a new window with more information about it.
