We believe that the MRK model is primarily a cognitive model because the instruction is organized in a way to best fit the learner's capabilities. Since the cognitivistic view emphasizes the active mental processing on the part of the learner and the MRK model is geared towards the learner's capabilities; it stands to follow that it is a strong cognitive model of instructional design methodology.

The MRK model is one of the more conventional ID models and it is a very flexible and adaptable ID model to use in developing ID projects. It is comprised of a process of nine steps which can be developed in any order for a given project. The various steps in the process are all geared towards creating a course of instruction that takes in to account the learner's capabilities. Everything from the task analysis to the learning objectives, strategies and delivery of the content are geared towards the success of the learner to comprehend the course of instruction.

The MRK model is one that I think would be very useful for developing a variety of projects and it is one that I particularly like in the various ID models available because of its great flexibility and adaptability to everything from academic courses to corporate training and education.
