Why is the ADDIE model considered time-consuming?

The ADDIE model is considered time-consuming because it is a linear model that is meant to be followed in a set order. This rigidity can make it difficult to adapt to changes, which can result in more time being spent on the design process. Additionally, the thoroughness of each stage in the ADDIE model, while beneficial for creating effective learning experiences, also contributes to the time-consuming nature of the model.

Question was asked on:

There are many advantages to ADDIE. ADDIE is commonly used, proven to be effective for learning, and widely accepted. It's also a key foundation for most other learning models, and is easy to measure in terms of time spent and associated cost. The disadvantages are that the model can be rigid and linear since its original intent was meant to be followed in a set order. It can also be time-consuming, costly, and doesn't lend itself to iterative design because it's not as flexible to adapt to changes. (Slide 3)
