ARCHED: Human-Centered AI-Assisted Instructional Design
Published in the iRAISE 2025 workshop proceedings, PMLR 273, pages 94–104. The publisher’s record and paper PDF provide the full method and author list.
Research question
How can LLMs support instructional design while preserving educator control and alignment with learning objectives?
Method
ARCHED separates a Learning Objective Generation System from an Objective Analysis Engine. Educators specify the teaching context, inspect Bloom’s taxonomy classifications, and select or refine objectives before assessment development.
Evaluation and scope
The evaluation examines learning-objective quality, taxonomic alignment, and preliminary feedback from educational experts. These results concern support for the instructional-design workflow; they do not establish classroom learning gains or broad adoption outcomes.
