Instructional Designers, Culture, and ID Practices in International Non Governmental Organisations

• In Event: CLT - Instructional Design Practice

Short Description

Instructional models and frameworks exalt the importance of localizing learning and instruction. What is not clear, is how one develops skills to design for different cultures. Building on prior research, we explore how Instructional Designers (IDs) are prepared to work in international contexts or in development agencies. We develop and share a conceptual framework about the functional of practices with a group of IDs within diverse non-governmental organizations (NGO) and governmental development organizations.
