Many instructional design experts consider the task analysis to be the most important part of the entire
instructional design process. Describe the key elements of a task analysis and tell us why you would
agree or disagree with the "experts."
Task analysis first and foremost is the process of breaking down large goal into small objectives
where anyone can master them. there are four key elements of a task analysis watching a master,
self-monitoring, brainstorming, and goal analysis.
(1.)Watching a master-imitating/role modeling correctly what others are doing.
(2.)Self-monitoring-reviewing what was done and the steps you took. `
(3.)Brainstorming- come up with ideas to make it happen.
(4.)Goal analysis-to help students come up with problem/solution to accomplish tasks.
As a teacher I totally agree that the number of steps in a task analysis depends upon the
functioning level of the child as well as the nature of the task. The goal is to assure all task are
achievable, observable, and measurable for all students.
