Instructional analysis is the process of examining a particular learning task or skill to identify the steps necessary for its successful completion. This involves breaking down the task into smaller components and analyzing each one to determine the skills, knowledge, and abilities required to complete it successfully. The instructional analysis aims to identify the important elements of the learning task, including the learning objectives, the learners' needs, the outcomes, the steps required to complete the task, the evaluation criteria, and the methods of instructional delivery required to ensure optimal learning. The instructional analysis is a critical component of the instructional design process as it provides the foundation for the development of effective learning materials, instructional strategies, and effective training programs.
