Abstract

The Instructional design plays a key role in the effectiveness of various educational courses. Studies have shown that the Instructional design is one of the key factors that affect the quality of e-learning courses; however, not enough attention has been paid to the instructional design for designing and implementation of e-learning courses. As a result, we face courses and programs which lack quality. Therefore, exploring the effective components of e-learning designing in the literature and offering an e-learning instructional design for higher education was the purpose of this study. To this end, the study used a systematic review and some keywords related to the instructional design were searched for in scientific databases. After reviewing the articles, 33 studies, conducted between 2015 and 2019, were reviewed. The findings showed that needs analysis, content analysis, learner analysis, instructional principles and strategies, learning environment design, electronic content development, messages design, guidance and support, and assessment and evaluation were the primary components affecting the effectiveness of e-learning. Finally, having reviewed and analyzed the results, examined their relevance to the instructional design, and taken into account the experience of authors in the field of e-learning, a framework was proposed for e-learning instructional design, hoped to be utilized by researchers and e-learning   practitioners.

Abstract [Persian]

طراحی آموزشی نقش کلیدی در اثربخشی دوره های آموزشی مختلف دارد و پژوهش ها نشان می دهند طراحی آموزشی به عنوان یکی از مولفه های تاثیر گذار بر کیفیت دوره های آموزش الکترونیکی نیز محسوب می شود؛ با این وجود در طراحی و اجرای دوره های آموزش الکترونیکی، طراحی آموزشی به نحو شایسته مورد توجه قرار نمی گیرد و در نتیجه شاهد دوره های آموزشی فاقد کیفیت مطلوب هستیم. از این رو هدف پژوهش حاضر بررسی مولفه های اثربخش طراحی آموزشی الکترونیکی از دید پژوهش های انجام شده و ارائه چارچوب طراحی آموزش الکترونیکی در آموزش عالی می باشد. بدین منظور پژوهش حاضر با استفاده از روش مرور نظام مند و جستجوی کلید واژه های مرتبط طراحی آموزش الکترونیکی در پایگاه های اطلاعاتی علمی پس از بررسی مقاله های به دست آمده، در نهایت 33 مقاله و پژوهش علمی انجام شده بین سال های 2019-2015را مورد مطالعه و واکاوی قرارد داده است. یافته های پژوهش نشان می دهد که تحلیل نیاز، تحلیل محتوا و تحلیل یادگیرنده، اصول و راهبردهای آموزش، طراحی محیط یادگری، تولید محتوای الکترونیکی، طراحی پیام، راهنمایی و پشتیبانی، سنجش و ارزشیابی محتوا و دوره از مولفه های تاثیر گذار بر اثربخشی یادگیری الکترونیکی هستد. پس از بررسی و تحلیل نتایج به دست آمده و تلفیق آن با طراحی آموزشی و در نظر گرفتن تجربه نگارندگان مقاله در زمینه طراحی آموزشی و آموزش الکترونیکی، چارچوب طراحی آموزشی الکترونیکی برای استفاده پژوهشگران و دست اندرکاران آموزش الکترونیکی ارائه شده است.
