Part 1

The ADDIE Model will be used in the step by step method in order to give the complete learning of the constitution to the eighth grade students of the suburban middle school. The process of using the model would be based on the following steps:

The learning problem is that the students lack the knowledge as well as the understanding of the constitution.
