Which of the following is NOT an example of an Instructional Systems Design Model?

• A. Addie
• B. Blooms
• C. Kemp
• D. Dick & Carey

Answer: (B)

Instructional design models provide a structured process for creating training. The ADDIE approach offers a clear flow: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The Kemp model is flexible and considers multiple design elements at once, such as learner characteristics, objectives, content, and instructional strategies. The Dick and Carey model treats instruction as a system with interrelated components, including identifying goals, analyzing tasks, designing assessments, and evaluating outcomes.

Bloom's taxonomy, by contrast, is a taxonomy of learning objectives that describes levels of cognitive processing (like remembering, applying, analyzing, evaluating, creating). It helps you write and categorize what learners should be able to do, and to choose appropriate verbs for objectives, but it does not prescribe a step-by-step process for designing or developing instruction itself. So, Bloom's taxonomy is not an instructional systems design model. In practice, you might use Bloom's to shape objectives within a design model like ADDIE or Dick & Carey, but Bloom's alone does not constitute an ISD model.
