Carole Currie
Carole began her involvement with Instructional Design with a career in corporate training where the focus was on the ADDIE (Analysis Design Development Implementation and Evaluation) Model of instructional design.  She found this design model particularly useful from the ROI (Return on Investment) standpoint.  When she entered higher education, she was introduced to the Backwards Design and Agile Models.  She has found that the Backwards Design Model provides an efficient foundation for introducing instructors to design principles.  Carole is also a Quality Matters Master Course Reviewer and translates this model to her work in instructional design.
