Methods IDENTIFIERS Instructional Systems Development

A comprehensive listing is provided of the specific needs for research on instructional systems development which have been identified by the authors of 2,692 pertinent articles. These articles were selected and abstracted for a basic file of technical information on instructional system development. Since some articles date back as far as 1953, they may no longer be relevant, but no attempt has been made to reflect the degree of current significance in this compendium. The needs arc categorized by the following principal instructional system development activities: 1) the determination of job performance requirements; 2) the specification of training requirements; 3) the establishment of criterion objectives; 4) the development of criterion-referenced tests; 5) the selection of media and methods; 6).the development of instructional materials; and 7) the evaluation of instructional programs. Each of these seven major categories is broken into subcategories and within these smaller units the research needs are listed chrorologically by publication date. (Author/LB) AIR FORCE 1
