Abstract
This article reports descriptive analyses of production data gathered from novice instructional designers and novice authors who used a commercial authoring system to produce a five-lesson unit on educational leadership models. Reported data include production ratios for various types of lessons and distribution of development times among the various development activities. Analyses of the data suggest ways to use these production data as bases for estimating both the length of lessons to be created and the number of hours of total production time that will be required to create computer-based instructional lessons.Keywords
