This study intended to analyze the effects of Event-oriented instructional design strategies for developing instructional materials of a cyber course in terms of learners`` satisfaction level. Event-oriented instructional design strategies were devised from Gagne``s Events of instruction to provide the interactions between a learner and instructional materials in a cyber course. The strategies were applied to develop three cyber courses, and the courses were implemented for a semester. A survey was conducted at the final stage of a semeter, and it asked for the satisfaction levels of students regarding Event-oriented instructional design strategies and the implementation of strategies for the teacher-students and students-students interactions. T-test and ANOVA were conducted to analyze the effects of Event-oriented instructional design strategies, and the results were as follows: CD there was an insignificant difference in the level of satisfaction for Event-oriented instructional design strategies between two groups of different level of satisfaction for the practice of implementation strategies to have effective interactions among students and between a teacher and students; ® while there was a significant difference in the level of satisfaction for the practice of implementation strategies among different kinds of subject-matter, there was an insignificant difference in the level of satisfaction for Event-oriented instructional design strategies among different kinds of subject-matter. The results showed that., in a cyber course, the effects of instructional design strategies for developing instructional materials and the effects of implementation strategies for having interactions between a teacher and students and among students could be analyzed in a separate way, and the study of basic and applicable instructional design strategies such as ``Event-oriented instructional design strategies`` should be conducted along with the study of the implementation strategies of a cyber course.
