Task-Driven ADDIE-Twist Model With a Teach-Study Double-Helix Structure

Contribution: This article proposes a task-driven ADDIE-Twist design model with a double-helix structure, which introduces intelligent teaching tools and lightweight collaboration platforms to design a knowledge-sharing and group collaboration model with two layers of teaching task driven and learning task driven, providing inspiration for the construction of new engineering courses and teaching reforms. Background: The ADDIE model is a classic instructional design model, but it still faces issues, such as a lack of flexibility, feedback mechanism, and emphasis on learners. The goal of new engineering education is to cultivate students' future-oriented professional literacy, knowledge structure, innovation, entrepreneurship capabilities, and teamwork spirit to meet the needs of society and industry development. In order to address these issues, this article proposes the ADDIE-Twist model. Research Questions: Can the use of the ADDIE-Twist model solve the problems of the traditional ADDIE model mentioned above? Can the use of the ADDIE-Twist model in engineering education improve the issues of lack of interaction and slow feedback between teachers and students? Methodology: Taking the experiment and implementation of the "Programmable Logic Circuit Design" course at Jinan University as an example, this article presents a design scheme for engineering education courses based on the ADDIE-Twist model. The application effect of the model is analyzed through three aspects: 1) a questionnaire survey; 2) semi-structured interviews; and 3) student awards. Results: 1) The ADDIE-Twist model can effectively enhance the frequency of teacher--student interaction. 2) The teaching reform of the ADDIE-Twist model helps to improve students' learning motivation, participation, self-learning, and active exploration capabilities.
