In P.A.D.D.I.E., which letter represents the Design phase?

• A. A
• B. P
• C. D
• D. I

Answer: (C)

In PADDIe, the Design phase is where you turn the insights from planning and analysis into a concrete instructional blueprint. Here you define learning objectives that are observable and measurable, map those objectives to assessments, outline the content structure and sequence, and decide on the instructional strategies and delivery methods. This stage sets up how success will be measured and how the instruction will be organized before you actually build the materials. It sits between planning/analysis and development, focusing on blueprinting the approach rather than creating materials or delivering the instruction.
