ADIME

The ADIME framework has five key steps:

  • Align
  • Develop
  • Implement
  • Measure
  • Evaluate

The align step helps the organisation explore the potential organizational impacts of the Moodle initiative, such as what is business problem are you solving with Moodle? This helps ensure the project goals are aligned with the business and organisational strategy.

The develop phase combines a design and development aspects where the solution is built to meet the declared objectives from the align phase. This is often done within a collaborative area/course within Moodle to aid the rapid development.

The implementation phase tackles the practicalities of rolling out the solution dealing with access, permissions, scheduling and notifications.

The measurement phase relates to how the learners are doing within the context of the implementation. This is checking if the solution itself is working to meet the learner needs.

The evaluation phase takes the organisational goals and measures the impact of the solution to help generate and re-align the goals for the next iteration.
