Stop Telling Designers What To Do: Reframing Instructional Design Education Through the Lens of ID Practice

• In Event: D&D - Instructional Design and Technology Education [FA]

Short Description

In this study, we address existing ID education through the lens of authentic ID practice, noting a lack of rigorous research into practice that should inform how we teach. Researchers observed eight ID practitioners conducting everyday activities in two organizations. Based on analysis of the judgments these designers made and the infrastructure surrounding their activities, implications for ID education are identified, including areas of authentic practice not usually addressed in courses.
