Conclusion 

Selecting the best instructional design model for guidance when dealing with students, content, and instructional goals can prove to be helpful.  It is evident that the ADDIE paradigm serves as a point of reference for many models. The Morrison, Ross, and Kemp Model and Interservice Procedures for Instructional Systems Development Model both include elements of ADDIE within their own design models.  When seeking one of these models, instructional designers and teachers can be reassured that they will be systematic, interdependent, and cybernetic.  Selecting an ADDIE-influenced model also provides support that it will work to increase intentional learning, and that it will stimulate creativity while increasing retention through the use of an Input -> Process -> Output paradigm.  The Kemp Model is the most flexible out of both ADDIE and IPISD with its curvilinear design approach.   The IPISD Model more closely resembles ADDIE in its linear design, but it is also the least flexible of the three.  While both the Kemp and IPISD models are geared for larger, costlier instructional design projects, the IPISD Model was designed specifically for military instruction.  It is up to the instructional designer or instructor to select the best model that fits their educational needs.
